# Rural & Urban Planning - Blackpool
Rural & Urban Planning is a semi-retired consultancy operated by Ian, a highly experienced Chartered Surveyor and Town Planner with nearly 50 years of professional practice. Based in Blackpool, the business now operates on a limited, home-based basis following Ian's transition from full-time consultancy work.
The practice serves businesses, individuals, and organisations requiring specialist advice on planning and surveying matters. Clients benefit from Ian's extensive career experience handling diverse and complex projects across both rural and urban contexts. Rather than offering a comprehensive service suite, Rural & Urban Planning now focuses on selective engagements where Ian can provide meaningful guidance.
What distinguishes this business is the depth of expertise on offer. With nearly five decades in the profession, Ian brings institutional knowledge, established professional networks, and seasoned judgment that only comes from long-term practice. The semi-retired model allows for highly personalised service without the constraints of larger consultancies, making it ideal for clients seeking bespoke advice on specific planning or surveying challenges.
The business operates on an approachable basis, with Ian inviting prospective clients to email initially to discuss whether their requirements fall within the scope of services currently offered. This selective approach ensures quality engagement and realistic expectations, appealing to clients who value experience and integrity over volume of work.
