The referendum on Aldringham cum Thorpe Neighbourhood Plan takes place on 12 February 2026.

Neighbourhood planning is a Government initiative that enables local communities to influence and take forward planning proposals at a local level. Plans can help determine the location of new development, provide guidance for what new buildings should look like and grant planning permission for particular types of development.
