We’re thrilled to share that Bloomfields has been named a finalist in the Royal Town Planning Institute’s (RTPI) 2025 Awards for Planning Excellence, in the category Mid-Size Planning Consultancy of the Year – and we’re proud to be the only team from Kent or Sussex to make the shortlist!

After winning the RTPI’s South East Mid-Size Planning Consultancy earlier this year, this national recognition means a lot to us. It celebrates the way we bring together planning expertise and architectural understanding to deliver thoughtful, sustainable projects that make a genuine difference, not just for our clients, but for communities and the environment too.

The RTPI Awards shine a spotlight on the very best in UK planning – teams that combine creativity, professionalism and a real commitment to positive impact. To be recognised alongside some of the country’s top consultancies shows how far we’ve come, and the strength of our approach here in the South East.

“At Bloomfields, we believe every site tells its own story,” says Tom Ogden, Director. “Being the only Kent and Sussex consultancy recognised by the RTPI this year is something we’re incredibly proud of. It’s a reflection of our passionate team and their belief that good planning should deliver lasting social, economic and environmental benefits.”

From rural diversification and housing to education, heritage and renewable energy, we’ve been lucky to work on a wide range of projects that share one goal – creating places that work for both people and the planet.

We cannot wait to represent the south east at the RTPI Awards ceremony on 26th November, and to celebrate this achievement with our amazing team, clients and collaborators who make it all possible.
