Winds of change

Brief

  • Provide a broad range of support to RWE npower renewables throughout the planning and construction of Little Cheyne Court, the largest onshore wind farm in the south east.

Results and highlights

  • A series of successful community consultation exhibitions were organised. 

  • Local and national print and broadcast publicity was managed by Maxim, which also involved hosting press visits.

  • A community liaison group and freephone service were established to help ensure good communications with local residents during the construction phase of the wind farm.

  • A community benefit fund was established.
