Volunteer with Planning Aid for London

We are always on the lookout for people with professional skills in planning, architecture, surveying, design, art, landscape architecture, engineering, community engagement, community organising and more. 

You can have a hugely positive impact as a volunteer: a short phone call with you can make all the difference to someone without significant knowledge of planning. 

Interested to volunteer with us? Apply here!
