By Tim Aldred

31 Aug 2022

Preston-based planning consultancy PWA Planning has appointed Paige Linley as a planner and Lewis Baldwin as an assistant planner.

Paige joins from Leith Planning and brings five years of town planning.

Her career highlights to date include achieving planning consent for an alternative provision school in Greenwich, project managing a mixed-use development scheme on Kensington High Street, London, as well as assisting with securing approval for a hotel near Heathrow Airport.

In her new role at PWA, Paige will work alongside the firm’s 18-strong team to prepare planning statements, manage the pre-application process, attend planning committee meetings, and negotiate with public bodies to progress applications in the commercial, industrial, housing, energy, sport and leisure sectors.

Paige is a student member of the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) and recently completed a postgraduate diploma in Town Planning at Leeds Beckett University.

Lewis joins from Mono Consultants where he worked as a graduate planning and acquisitions surveyor. 

His new role as an assistant planner at PWA will see Lewis help secure planning permission for new housing, leisure and sports developments that the firm is bringing forward.

Lewis graduated with a master’s degree in planning from the University of Manchester in 2020, while he also holds a degree in geography.

Stella Walton, director of PWA Planning, said: “We’re excited to have both Paige and Lewis on board and are pleased to welcome them to the PWA Planning team.

“Their enthusiasm and expertise will help the firm deliver the surge in planning submissions that we’re helping our clients with – especially in the energy sector where we’re seeing increasing demand for new alternative energy schemes, including energy storage projects."
