Culture-led regeneration: achieving inclusive and sustainable growth

The LGA Culture, Tourism and Sport Board commissioned this guide to see how cultural-led regeneration can be done, so councils across the country can look at examples that work for them and possibly do something similar.


The LGA looked at different types of councils – urban and rural, unitary, county and district, as well as the wider landscape represented here by the excellent New Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership. We have looked at different types of activity, from those councils using existing assets in different ways, to creating new anchor organisations for cultural regeneration, to festivals and popup activities, to strategic planning and skills investment.
