Regeneration in Redruth

Redruth Vision and Strategy group was set up to consider, assist, support and further the regeneration of the parish of Redruth. At an Extraordinary General Meeting of the group on the 20th of July the group agreed a number of changes to the way in which they work with the aim of becoming more proactive in driving positive change in Redruth. It is also hoped that the new format will help to get more people interested in work which is being undertaken and give them the opportunity to become more involved in regeneration.

To mark the changes the group is changing its name to Redruth Regeneration Group. An executive committee will meet monthly with the aim of identifying priority areas and projects to be taken forward on behalf of the people of Redruth. This group will include representatives of Redruth Town Council, the Police, Youth, Education, the Business sector, The Urban Regeneration Company (CPR Regeneration), Kerrier Regeneration Team (part of Kerrier District Council), the Community and Voluntary Sector and the Redruth Town Forum. In addition, a general meeting to discuss current projects and future priorities will be held every three months which anyone interested in finding out about regeneration or becoming involved in projects can attend. Anyone interested in becoming involved with this wider group can become a member and will therefore automatically receive notice of Regeneration Group meetings and the minutes and agenda's for executive group meetings. Anyone with an interest in Redruth and its future is encouraged to get involved.

Membership forms can be obtained by calling Antonia Pickup, Community Regeneration Officer for Redruth on 01209 614061, or by collecting one from the Town Council Offices or Redruth Community Centre.

The Objective One Programme has provided investment for the project facilitation activity provided by Kerrier District Council for the Tin Country Partnership.
