Community wealth building in neighbourhoods

3 Mar 2020

A summary of the consultation held at St George’s House

Read the full report

This report summarises discussion at a consultation held at St George’s House, Windsor Castle, in November 2019, on the theme of community wealth building. Local Trust organised the event in collaboration with St George’s House to explore the relevance of community wealth building at the neighbourhood level, particularly to communities that might be described as ‘left behind’.

Participants included people from academia, think tanks, the charitable sector, micro-enterprise and private organisations, providing a wide range of perspectives within the discussion.
