  1. Regeneration and supporting the growth agenda in Corby 2006 - 2014 Jacqui Page, Housing Strategy Manager January 2015

  2. Outcomes to date • CBC Regeneration of 3 key areas • Successful bid for support funding to build 74 new council homes • Purchased 8 homes using RTB receipts • Funding Bids Supported by CBC • Kickstart • Get Britain Building • National Affordable Homes Programme for partner RSLs

  3. 3 key regeneration areas saw improvements including a reduction of crime and anti-social behaviour Kingswood (top left) Danesholme (bottom left) Lodge Park (right) These are the 3 estates that have suffered a number of issues including crime and antisocial behaviour due to the design of buildings and layout of streets. They were designed using the Radburn principles of community living. However, this has not worked as modern day living favours the car rather than the pedestrian or cyclist. The 3 Streets were demolished in 2006/7 to make way for new development that would suit modern life and reflect need and demand by people living in Corby. The 3 streets that were demolished; Lincoln Way, Kingswood; Finland Way, Danesholme; Arran Way, Lodge Park; were primarily made up of flats, bed sitters and maisonettes that suffered from a lack of demand from residents of the borough.

  4. Growth of 82 new council homes, let to the housing register Top Left picture: Lodge Park Regeneration of Arran Way – 30 new homes for rent by the Council. Bottom Left picture: Danesholme, Copenhagen Road development – 14 new homes for rent by the Council. Danesholme suffers a deficit of 2 bed homes and 10 of these homes are 2 bed houses to alleviate that issue.

Outcomes Projected • CBC Regeneration continues • 58 new homes supported by HCA funding to finalise regeneration on Kingswood, Danesholme, Lodge Park and Hazel Leys in the 2011-15 programme • Funding Bids Supported by CBC • Affordable Homes Programme bids for RSL partners such as ASRA who are currently doing Canada Square (18 Properties) and Metropolitan who are currently doing West Glebe in the Lloyds West Part of Corby (18 homes, 14 of which are bungalows).
