Your streets and the people who live there are different from everywhere else. What works in one place in the world, the country or even in another town in Oxfordshire might not work the same in another.
Healthy Place Shaping says that we should not copy or duplicate something just because it has worked elsewhere. Instead we should breakdown why something worked and rebuild based on local circumstance and opportunities.
Questions to consider:
- How will this work with, or support communities to build on their own local strengths?
- How will this identify and adapt to local circumstance?
- How will this engage communities as partners in the process, including consultation and involvement in every step of the process, from priority-setting through to implementation, learning, and next steps?
