Redington and Frognal Neighbourhood Forum

 

Redington Frognal Neighbourhood Forum Redesignation

The Redington Frognal Neighbourhood Forum has applied to the Council to be formally redesignated as a neighbourhood forum, in accordance with the Town and Country Planning Act (1990) and the Neighbourhood Planning Regulations. The Forum was designated in 2019 and must re-apply if it is to be formally designated for a further five years. We are consulting residents and other interested stakeholders on this application (link to application below).

Consultation closes on Thursday 12 March 2026.

If the application is agreed, the Redington Frognal Neighbourhood Forum can continue neighbourhood planning related work for the area. A neighbourhood plan is a statutory planning document setting out general planning policies for the development and use of land in a neighbourhood.

If such a designation is made no other organisation or body may be designated as a neighbourhood forum for the neighbourhood area until that designation expires or is withdrawn.

Any comments should relate to whether the Forum should be designated as a neighbourhood forum for another five years.

A paper copy of the application can be viewed at the following location:

Pancras Square Library, 5 Pancras Square, NC1 4AG

Opening hours: Monday to Saturday 8am to 8pm, Sunday: 11am to 5pm

Comments must be received by 12 March 2026 by email to

Adopted Neighbourhood Plan

Stages in the preparation of the Redington Frognal Neighbourhood Plan are set out in time order below.

Previous Redington Frognal Area and Forum applications

On 5 September 2014 the Council approved the designation of the Redington Frognal Neighbourhood Area and Neighbourhood Forum. Public consultation on the associated applications took place between 26 June and 8 August 2014. 

The 2014 approved applications can be viewed below. They show the area in which the neighbourhood planning powers apply.

The Redington Frognal Neighbourhood Forum was redesignated for another 5 years on 25 October 2019.

​​Plan Submission

Redington Frognal Neighbourhood Forum submitted its proposed Neighbourhood Plan to Camden Council.  All documents are PDFs.

Additionally, the Forum submitted a document setting out complementary actions which are intended to help to deliver the Neighbourhood Plan.  This does not contain planning policies and therefore does not form a part of the statutory development plan for the area.

Referendum

A referendum was held on the 17 June 2021 where all eligible voters were asked:

"Do you want the London Borough of Camden to use the Neighbourhood Plan for the Redington Frognal Neighbourhood Area to help decide planning applications in the neighbourhood area?"

Of the votes cast, 88% supported the Council using the Plan, 12% voted against. The turnout was 19%.

On being approved at referendum, the Plan became part of the development plan in the neighbourhood area.
