We’re proud to share that two of our colleagues have been elected in the latest Landscape Institute (LI) elections.
Consultant Landscape Planner Tamanna Parwani has been elected to the LI Board of Trustees as Non-Chartered Trustee.
Senior Landscape Architect Dilip Lakhani has been elected to the LI Council as a Chartered Member.
Both Tamanna and Dilip bring passion, insight, and experience to these important roles, helping to shape the future of the profession.
Tamanna joined LUC in early 2024. She has a strong background in landscape planning, with a focus on strategic assessments. Her recent work includes Green Belt studies for Kirklees, Stockport and Greater London Area.
Tamanna also supports landscape and visual impact assessments for major infrastructure and energy projects like SSEN and National Grid.
She combines a clear, evidence-based approach with excellent spatial and policy analysis.
“I’m grateful for this opportunity to support and represent emerging professionals in the sector. I look forward to learning from others on the Board and sharing the fresh perspectives of those new to the profession.”
