Hackney Regeneration Framework

Hackney is situated in the heart of London, one of the world’s most successful global cities, and right on the doorstep of the financial powerhouse of the City. Despite considerable growth in the City over the past 20 years, all of Hackney’s wards remain stubbornly in the top 10 per cent of the most deprived wards nationally.

In order to address this disparity, Renaisi has been commissioned by the London Borough of Hackney to prepare a Strategic Regeneration Delivery Framework. This focuses on how the Council and its partners can capitalise on the unprecedented opportunities it currently faces, including being a host borough for London 2012, the development of Stratford City, the northwards expansion of the City and Crossrail etc and establishing how it can ensure benefits reach all sections of the community – particularly those who are not in full time education or employment.

The Delivery Framework has been commissioned to provide a clear regeneration vision for the borough, grounded in delivery and clearly linked to the Council’s key strategies including the Community Strategy, the Local Development Framework and the Mayor’s priorities.

Moreover, Nicky Doherty is working with Hackney’ Olympic and Paralympic Unit to co-ordinate Hackney’s involvement in three key 2012 Legacy plans: the Strategic Regeneration Framework, the Legacy Masterplan Framework and the Multi-Area Agreement. Nicky is involved in putting these plans together and supporting
