  • 2015 Marked Another Milestone in the History of DPDS Consulting As the Group Celebrates Its 30Th Year of Operation
    ReviewTHE DPDS CONSULTING GROUP NEWSLETTER I ISSUE 46 2015 marked another milestone in the history of DPDS Consulting as the Group celebrates its 30th year of operation. This edition of Review looks at a number of landmark projects that DPDS has worked on over this time. Working alongside our clients, together we have achieved successful outcomes by maximising development potential, achieving high standards of design and remaining sensitive to the environment. The Wichelstowe project was just a dream when DPDS were instructed by the landowners almost 28 years ago to provide planning advice and promote the land, often referred to as “The Front Garden”, for development. In March 2000 DPDS secured a positive EiP Panel Report recommending allocation of the site in the Wiltshire Structure Plan 2011 and in July 2002, DPDS submitted an outline planning application to Swindon Borough Council for the development for 4,500 homes, employment land, retail and community uses, primary and secondary schools plus community open spaces. The application was approved in 2004 and, in spite of several unsuccessful High Court challenges, work got underway by 2006. Today, over 500 families have moved into the first of the new homes at East Wichel and construction of the main district centre food store has taken place and is occupied by Waitrose. Construction is now set to commence later in 2015/16 on the central section of the site at Middle Wichel. 1 Established in 1985 by current Chairman, Les Durrant, DPDS Consulting Group is a leading professional practice providing expert advice in the fields of Town and Country Planning, Architecture, Masterplanning and Urban Design, Environmental Impact Assessment, Landscape Architecture and Development.

    This is the author’s version of the article, first published in Journal of Urban Regeneration & Renewal, Volume 8 / Number 2 / Winter, 2014-15, pp. 133- 144 (12). https://www.henrystewartpublications.com/jurr Understanding and measuring social sustainability Email [email protected] Abstract Social sustainability is a new strand of discourse on sustainable development. It has developed over a number of years in response to the dominance of environmental concerns and technological solutions in urban development and the lack of progress in tackling social issues in cities such as inequality, displacement, liveability and the increasing need for affordable housing. Even though the Sustainable Communities policy agenda was introduced in the UK a decade ago, the social dimensions of sustainability have been largely overlooked in debates, policy and practice around sustainable urbanism. However, this is beginning to change. A combination of financial austerity, public sector budget cuts, rising housing need, and public & political concern about the social outcomes of regeneration, are focusing attention on the relationship between urban development, quality of life and opportunities. There is a growing interest in understanding and measuring the social outcomes of regeneration and urban development in the UK and internationally. A small, but growing, movement of architects, planners, developers, housing associations and local authorities advocating a more ‘social’ approach to planning, constructing and managing cities. This is part of an international interest in social sustainability, a concept that is increasingly being used by governments, public agencies, policy makers, NGOs and corporations to frame decisions about urban development, regeneration and housing, as part of a burgeoning policy discourse on the sustainability and resilience of cities.

    A FORCE FOR GOOD Welcome Placemaking is a force for good in this country. Giving people a home. Creating strong communities. Foreword Generating jobs and growth. Making our society better in many different ways. It is a driving force behind this nation’s wealth and prosperity. Creating successful places transforms people’s lives, from the country to the suburbs and from council estates to the high street. It is good for the people who live and work in each community; and it benefits countless others who now enjoy fantastic public realm, playing in the parks and using the shops and facilities, as well as public transport and services funded by new development. This story does not get told loudly enough. Right across the country, councils and communities are working together with our industry, turning vacant and derelict sites into handsome places that contribute positively to life in Britain. There is a lot for everyone to be proud of. As a business, Berkeley is always learning and listening hard to what people say.
