Community assets and spaces, Community engagement, Place-based pride and connection, Resident leadership, Working collaboratively

This research presents the risks, challenges and opportunities experienced by Big Local areas when trying to use their £1.15 million of funding to grow community power. 

It highlights a web of interrelated components that explains how non-prescriptive financial resources can generate and sustain community power.

A summary report accompanies the full research report. 

A plain text version will be added later this year.
