About Place Alliance
Through the production of robust evidence, the Place Alliance advocates for place quality. It is focussed on the idea that through knowledge and collaboration we can establish a culture whereby the quality of place becomes an everyday national and local priority. The Place Alliance works with organisations and individuals who share this belief and who recognise that the quality of our built environment has a profound influence on people’s lives.
Place Alliance is hosted by
