Sense of Community

Village of Frodsham in Cheshire

A sense of community is key to the region’s residents feeling positive about where they live. A true sense of community is a culmination of three factors:

  • Building real communities
  • Building sustainable communities
  • Fostering a sense of place

Building Real Communities

Building real communities is about improving the region’s infrastructure, housing and green spaces, as well as regenerating urban areas and developing rural areas, to make the Northwest a better place to live. It is also about working with communities to ensure equality and economic inclusion.

Building Sustainable Communities

Find out about how the NWDA is supporting the development of sustainable communities.

Fostering a Sense of Place

A sense of place is about region’s residents having a belief in the identity of the Northwest; about them taking a sense of pride in the region. (This sense of place is an important element of developing the region’s tourism.)
