SPS has never been more relevant as we fight for the best planning outcomes for Suffolk.
Meeting the challenges of climate change and addressing the housing and economic crises raises significant risks for our countryside and our world famous historic towns and villages.
SPS is not a blocker. We support the nation’s vital move towards net zero and we recognise the economic realities that the country is facing. We push for policies and decisions that will benefit future generations and that seek to mitigate the most harmful impacts on Suffolk’s landscape and heritage.
We are a charity which is supported by our Members and our generous Supporters. Details of our Supporters are available here.
