Planed

Empowering Communities - PLANED is a community led development organisation with over 30 years experience. Based in Pembrokeshire, we work across West Wales including Carmarthenshire and Ceredigion, to improve the quality of life for communities. The PLANED process is about working with geographic communities and communities of interest to identify, develop and implement sustainable projects that improve the wellbeing of the community with a focus on long-term, integrated, collaborative actions. PLANED is a community-led partnership established as a social enterprise, a Development Trust, a charity, and a company limited by guarantee, with its Board members being representatives from communities and from the public and private sectors. Our aim is to engage local people in improving their quality of life – culturally, socially, environmentally and economically. We do this by delivering locally tailored initiatives, which build on existing community strengths and by empowering local people. As a charitable based organisation, we believe in the importance of partnership working; collaborating with public sector bodies; the private sector; the voluntary sector; and special interest groups for the benefit of our local communities and wider regional economy.
