Retail-led Regeneration  
 
Retail-led regeneration is an important mechanism to revitalise communities by providing jobs, promoting economic growth and creating attractive places to draw people into an area. It also has an important role to play in place-making as an element of wider urban regeneration.

In a report supported by the BCSC Educational Trust and Business in the Community (BITC), DTZ Consulting conducted the research to identify good practice in terms of the community and social impacts of retail-led regeneration projects and draw lessons for future similar developments. Key findings of the research indicate that partnerships have been formed on a number of different levels bringing with them vision, ownership and the necessary political backing. Transparent operations and communication at all levels where has been imperative. Developers with a good understanding of the needs and priorities of communities, and good quality masterplans and development, represent key success factors.
