Why we can’t leave it to the government‘Regeneration to Enable Growth gives us little confidence that the government has a clear strategy for addressing the country’s regeneration needs. It lacks strategic direction and is unclear about the nature of the problem it is trying to solve.’House of Commons communities and local government
committee

Why we can’t leave it to the experts
‘...the challenge now is to maximise the numbers and minimise the price. Although the scale is different, the “numbers game” which led directly to the housing disasters of the sixties is being played again, this time by housing associations instead of councils.’
David Page, Building for Communities, 1993

Why coproduction means rethinking housing1 Housing as a foundation for community: from bricks and mortar to learning, work, health and hopes2 Housing as an anchor of place: putting down roots and building networks3 Housing as a stepping stone: an opportunity to build skills, confidence and standing
![Page 13: Regeneration in a cold climate - Amazon Web Servicesdoc.housing.org.uk.s3.amazonaws.com/Presentations... · 1 The Olympian god 2 The Fat Controller 3 The Philanthropist 4 The Revolutionary](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070813/5f0d11f97e708231d43887d5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Why coproduction means rethinking work1 The value created within communities is often fashioned outside the workplace2 Work is not always a route out of poverty: 61% of children in poverty have working parents3 Insecure and precarious work damages communities. Zero-hours or commission-only contracts can harm physical and mental health
