We are very pleased and proud to announce that Kate Coventry has been named the RTPI Cymru Young Planner of the Year for 2022.

The two LRM offices attended the RTPI Cymru Awards for Planning Excellence on Tuesday evening, where Kate was awarded the RTPI Cymru Young Planner of the Year for 2022.

The event was held in the historical arcades in Cardiff, where Kate received her award and was applauded for her contribution to Young Planners Cymru. Since joining us in 2017, Kate has progressed to Senior Planner and is now a Chartered Town Planner. Kate has also been involved with Young Planners Cymru for a number of years, and was elected Chair in January 2021 which saw her manage and oversee Young Planners Cymru nationally. Kate has since progressed to the Management Board and as of January 2022, acts as a National Board Representative for the RTPI.

Kate has now been put forward as a finalist in the National awards, which will be held on the 30th November in London.

Congratulations Kate from all of us at LRM!
