“We worked very closely with PDI on the new community at Chesterton in Cirencester. Throughout this process Jeremy and his team were energetic in their pursuit of the key local political issues and insightful in their analysis. This ensured we were able to address these issues in our strategy and most importantly communicate clearly with the main stakeholders”
David Jackson, Head of National Planning – Savills
