MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "Through seven London case studies of communities opposing social housing demolition and proposing alternative community-led plans, Community-Led Regeneration offers a toolkit of planning mechanisms and other strategies that residents and planners working with communities can use to resist demolition and propose community-led schemes. The case studies are Walterton and Elgins Community Homes, West Kensington and Gibbs Green Community Homes, Cressingham Gardens Community, Greater Carpenters Neighbourhood Forum, Focus E15, People's Empowerment Alliance for Custom House (PEACH), and Alexandra and Ainsworth Estates. Together, the case studies represent a broad overview of groups who formed as a reaction to proposed demolitions of their housing, and groups who formed as a way to manage their homes and their public space better. Drawing from the case studies, the toolkit includes the use of formal planning instruments as well as other strategies such as sustained campaigning and activism, forms of citizen-led design, and alternative proposals for the management and ownership of housing by communities themselves. Community-Led Regeneration targets a diverse audience: from planning professionals and scholars working with communities, to housing activists and residents resisting the demolition of their neighbourhoods and proposing their own plans."
