Housing professionals have broadly welcomed a new
government blueprint for overhauling run-down estates across England, coupled
with a £32m funding boost. The flagship Estate Regeneration National Strategy makes
available £32m in grant funding on top of £140m in loan finance already
earmarked for the scheme. The strategy,
which focuses on community-led regeneration, has been developed by a panel
co-chaired by Lord Heseltine and the housing and planning minister, Gavin
Barwell. It began work in February this year and aims to help transform 100
run-down estates around England over the next 10 to 15 years. Read more on the
CLG website.
