Minister for Decentralisation and Cities Greg Clark has launched a report for the PlaceShapers group of housing associations at an event in London.
The report ‘Localism that works’, shows how PlaceShapers are “at the spearhead of delivering localism to transform communities, lives and opportunities”.
In his introduction Mr Clark says, “this document can provide valuable insights to social landlords and communities alike who want to shape their neighbourhood for the better”.
The report contains 16 case studies showing how housing associations have engaged with the concept of localism to show that they are ‘more than just landlords’ and can save public expenditure.
