Join us for Politics vs Planning with Mark Hand, Head of RTPI Cymru

Join Cavendish Cymru for our final Politics vs Planning session before the Senedd election — and it’s set to be a big one.

We’re excited to welcome Mark Hand, Director of RTPI Cymru, who will delve into the RTPI’s Planifesto — the Institute’s headline planning priorities for Wales as we head into a pivotal election in May 2026.

With Wales on the cusp of political change, the Planifesto sets out bold, practical steps to empower planners to deliver real impact. It outlines clear asks designed to create a planning system that champions best practice, strengthens communities, and unlocks better outcomes across the country.

Join us on Tuesday, 24 February at the Cardiff Town House, 18 The Hayes, St David’s Centre, Cardiff, CF10 1AH, from 12.30pm to 2pm to hear more, take part in the discussion, and network with peers shaping the future of the built environment in Wales.

This session is ideal for built environment professionals who want sharp, politics-aware insight to support live and upcoming projects. Spaces are limited — RSVP via the link below.
