Community Regeneration through Partnership Emily Cockle, Community Regeneration Manager Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council www.basp.basingstoke.gov.uk partnerships@basingstoke.gov.uk
Approach • We are looking to create a partnership approach, as part of BASP, which will take a strategic oversight of community based regeneration • With the expertise across a number of sectors we think this is the best approach for the benefit of Basingstoke and Deane • This will enable BASP and other partners to champion a strategic approach and develop well connected communities.
What has been done before • In 2006, we developed a ‘Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy’ to improve the quality of life in a number of priority areas • In 2011, the ‘Strategic Approach to Regeneration’ was developed with partners, identifying priority areas such as Buckskin, South Ham and Norden • Increasing need to take a long-term view of the challenges and develop a strategy that will guide regeneration in the future.
Our current position • We are currently developing a strategy - ‘Community Regeneration through Partnership ’ • Aim is to shape and drive regeneration across Basingstoke and Deane in the short, medium and long- term • The strategy will determine approach, priorities and principles that the council, partners and communities will work to and create communities that people are proud to live in.
Community-led regeneration • This will build on work that has taken place by communities in Buckskin and Winklebury who have developed community plans • It is important that communities such as Winklebury and Buckskin benefit from new developments such as Winklebury and an opportunity for residents to shape their areas • Issues raised in the community plans include parking, improvements needed to areas and provision of facilities.
