Managing Director Leigh Sear has written a chapter for the Coastal Communities Alliance’s forthcoming handbook on coastal regeneration. The chapter focuses on enterprise-led regeneration and features case studies of regeneration activity in Scarborough, Newbiggin by-the-sea and Great Yarmouth. Leigh, along with fellow Managing director of Wood Holmes, Stuart Smith, will be attending the Launch of the Coastal Regeneration Handbook on the 27th January.
The primary objective of the Coastal Regeneration Handbook is to reduce deprivation and improve the quality of life in coastal resorts by increasing the effectiveness of coastal regeneration practitioners. The handbook will seek to achieve this by:
- Stimulating new thinking and approaches for the development of local solutions to entrenched coastal resort problems.
- Clarifying ‘who’s who’ and ‘who’s doing what’ in coastal regeneration
- Improving the knowledge, effectiveness and cooperation of coastal regeneration practitioners and the various national, regional and local organisations that support the development of coastal communities
