Welcome to Gemini Planning Services

A small Hampshire-based planning consultancy

Gemini Planning is a small town planning consultancy located in Chandler’s Ford, in Hampshire and is run by Ruth Harding.

We offer clear town planning advice across a whole spectrum of sectors and for a wide range of clients, ranging from modest domestic extensions to large scale residential schemes and from barn conversions to the re-purposing of large-scale commercial buildings.

We can provide initial planning appraisals to assess the liklihood of planning success and determining the best planning strategy and if appropriate pre-application submissions to “test the waters” with the Council. We will then guide proposals through the planning application process, including post-submission/condition discharge work and planning appeals.

  • Ruth is a key member of our professional team and has advised us on planning matters on 10 projects in the past 5 years. We value her combination of pragmatic and commercial planning skills. Ruth’s in depth subject matter expertise is invaluable in helping to guide us to the best decisions. Also her practical insider experience helps her to advise us on how our commercial ideas will be received within council planning departments. Ruth has helped take us from being inexperienced developers who were 100% reliant on her for planning advice to being slightly more experienced developers who choose to rely 100% on her for planning guidance. She is a joy to have within our team and we highly recommend her work.

  • We have worked with Gemini Planning on several projects. Ruth is especially knowledgeable around Permitted Development and we have found her desk reviews for potential sites invaluable.

  • Ruth assisted me recently with obtaining planning permission for a student accommodation scheme in Sidcup, South London. Ruth’s advice was always timely and reliable and I valued her clear, positive and responsive approach. I am happy to recommend Ruth at Gemini Planning Services without reservation and I will certainly use Ruth again for other upcoming projects
