The Independent Commission on Neighbourhoods has been established to rigorously examine the role of neighbourhoods in people’s lives, quantifying and qualitatively exploring the case for neighbourhood focused regeneration as a contribution to achieving wider social and economic objectives. The Commission will also establish ‘what works’ by drawing on both international and domestic evidence, with a particular focus on the most deprived and ‘left behind’ communities. 

The Commission is chaired by Baroness Armstrong of Hill Top and supported by a small, cross-party group of experts, practitioners and others with a keen interest in neighbourhood issues. Its work will examine the case for a new focus on neighbourhoods in national policy as a means of addressing multiple disadvantage, regenerating communities and enabling government to achieve its mission objectives. Commissioners are supported by an academic panel, a lived experience panel and a representative group of community sector organisations.
