information SERVICE DETAILS

We work extensively with community groups and public bodies across Scotland on place-based projects. In particular, we are experienced in supporting community groups and public bodies undertake engagement activities to help communities articulate, develop and deliver plans to improve a particular place.

As well as place-based projects, we provide skills training for community organisations, planners, elected members and public bodies.

SKILLS TRAINING

Community Council training...

Community Councils have a statutory role in the Scottish planning system. It is therefore important that Community Councillors understand how planning works in practice and their rights and responsibilities. For more information, download our PDF at http://www.pas.org.uk/projects.

Elected Members’ training...

PAS offers specialist training for Elected Members to assist them in their role as decision-makers and facilitators in the planning system. The training is delivered by PAS staff and senior qualified planners (who are also PAS volunteers). For more information, download our PDF at http://www.pas.org.uk/projects.

SP=EED Verification...

SP=EED® is our practical toolkit for effective community engagement. It is referred to in Scottish Government guidance and can be downloaded free from the PAS website.

For more information, download our PDF at http://www.pas.org.uk/projects or visit the SP=EED page at https://www.pas.org.uk/speed.
