Digital Planning will sponsor the Inspiring Others category of the Charnwood Community Heroes Awards 2025.
Organised by Charnwood Borough Council, the awards celebrate individuals and groups that dedicate their time and energy to making a positive impact in the Borough.
The Inspiring Others Award recognises people who motivate and support those around them.
The category highlights the power of encouragement and leadership at every level – qualities that reflect Digital Planning’s own approach towards innovation and teamwork.
Digital planning co-director, James Ferraby, said: “Several of us grew up in Charnwood and, as we grow as a business, we want to show our support and appreciation of people who make our community better.
“Community Heroes is a really good way for businesses like ours to say thank you to those who give their time to others.”

The sponsorship follows Digital Planning’s recent move to the Advanced Technology Innovation Centre in Loughborough.
The increased office space marks another step in the company’s growth and strengthens its roots in the Charnwood area.
Digital Planning develops digital solutions that address complex challenges for critical organisations using AI, automation, and cloud technologies to improve productivity and efficiency.
