Getting Started (21 Steps to a Successful Project)

 

‘Getting Started’ is a step by step guide to running a successful regeneration project. It takes you through the process of running a project, from the initial planning stages to ensuring that your project lasts well into the future. It should be of particular value to non-professional users who know an area of land they want to help improve and who need guidance to think through what is involved. Of course, once a project is actually underway, the steps are unlikely to happen one-at-a-time or even in the order presented here. ‘Getting Started’ nevertheless provides an overview of the process with a number of helpful check lists and references to more detailed information and relevant content within ecoregen.

Working with others and engaging the support of local agencies and public bodies, you have the power to make a real difference to your neighbourhood!

 

This web site will help to guide you through steps to help you change your area of land for your community:

 

All over Europe people are working to make a real difference to their local open spaces…. Why not do the same?
