Laurence Neal
 Laurence Neal is design lead focused on designing inclusivity into the masterplan, public realm, and the first buildings at the Earls Court Development Company (ECDC). He runs the Public Realm inclusivity Panel (PRIP) a diverse group from the local area, aged 15 to 80+, who have a range of lived experiences, requirements and support needs. The panel was set up to give a voice to local people who are not usually included in the process of creating development projects. The PRIP has been working alongside the team for over two years, reviewing and assessing evolving designs and ensuring inclusive design is at the forefront of the public realm proposals. In total the panel have spent over 570 hours in workshops with ECDC and the design team shaping proposals.
