Community involvement in economic regeneration lessons from North East England
This article looks at an example of community involvement in economic regeneration. It considers the impact of a group of community-owned and controlled businesses that have been set up by the Cruddas Park Community Trust on an inner city housing estate in Newcastle upon Tyne. It is argued that the businesses have been very successful in creating work for the long-term unemployed in a way that brings a number of significant community and economic benefits. The disbenefits associated with more conventional regeneration initiatives have therefore been partly overcome. Accordingly it is argued that the Cruddas Park model is worthy of replication elsewhere.
