Regeneration
The Government has recently published its approach to regeneration, Regeneration to enable growth: What Government is doing in support of community-led regeneration. This regeneration toolkit also signposts the tools - powers, flexibilities, incentives, policy options, programmes and funding opportunities - that are available to support community-led regeneration to enable growth, and assist the most vulnerable communities.
The Government is taking a new, localist approach to regeneration. This puts residents, local businesses, civil society organisations and civic leaders in the driving seat, providing them with local rewards and incentives to drive growth and improve the social and physical quality of their area. Government's role will be strategic and supportive:
- Reforming and decentralising public services
- Providing powerful incentives that drive growth
- Removing barriers that hinder local ambitions
- Providing targeted investment and reform to strengthen the infrastructure for growth and regeneration and to support the most vulnerable.
