The government has announced plans for 3 million homes by 2020 and these new homes will make up the communities of the future. Communities and Local Government want to ensure that these are sustainable communities, rich in character and culture - we recognise the valuable contribution that culture can make in building safer, stronger communities that are empowered, confident, cohesive and visionary as well as the contribution it makes to the local economy, employment and skills.
We know that place matters and cultural and sporting assets and opportunities have a great part to play in creating and enhancing places. To read more visit the Communities website.
