As part of Planning Aid London, Ralf Heckmann helped to deliver the introductory Planning/Urban Design/Architecture course “Designing good safe places to play for all”, accredited by the AQA.

 

The course will help young people aged 14-19 to look at neighbourhoods and open spaces critically, as well as helping them to develop some basic skills in urban and landscape design, architecture and town planning.

 

The course is centred on an under-used public space on the Ossulston housing estate in Somers Town, which student will be asked to re-design as a new play space that meets the needs of a wide range of young people, the needs of the environment and local surroundings, and the needs of other local residents.
