Rich Regeneration has been engaged by Birmingham City Council to develop a tool for measuring the social value and impact of asset transfer. The project will involve piloting the tool using two transfer projects in Birmingham and facilitating a national local authority action learning set focusing on the tool.

Rich Regeneration worked with consultants Renaisi on carrying out a review of community premises in the London Borough of Islington with a view to maximising community benefit and providing sustainable and suitable premises for the third sector in the borough.

The project involved carrying out consultation with the occupiers of community buildings in Islington and testing various future options including establishing a strategic trust to manage community assets in the long-term. The chosen solution will provide third sector occupiers with greater security and maximise community benefit for the people of Islington.

Rich Regeneration were engaged to research and draft two guides on tackling worklessness, one focused on the role of the third sector, and one on unlocking community assets. The guides are aimed at practitioners in local authorities and have been published on the IDeA knowledge website.

The how to guides draw on best practice around the country and offer local authorities a step by step approach to improving their performance in tackling worklessness through working with the third sector and unlocking the potential of community assets.
