Improving the deal for communities - 2004 - Regeneration and Renewal 14 May 2004, 22-23(2) .

Looks at the emphasis on giving local people a real say in the design and running of regeneration programmes. This is the most innovative aspect of the New Deal for Communities, the government flagship community renewal project conceived to tackle the socio-economic problems of Britain's most deprived neighbourhoods. Examines how it is being put into practice across England and suggests that paying greater attention to community activism and new localism would make the New Deal for Communities more successful.
