Elevate

Introduction

There have been a lot of exciting developments over the last year in Burnley - all of which are lighting the way to a brighter future.

Through Elevate East Lancashire, one of the government's nine housing market renewal pathfinders, Burnley Council is aiming to give new life to neighbourhoods that are suffering from low housing demand.

More green spaces, housing acquisitions and demolitions, development opportunities, face-lifting and street scene improvements are tackling poor housing conditions, falling property prices and abandonment head-on.

Through housing market renewal funding and with further funding from English Partnerships, the Housing Corporation and the NWDA, the face of some of Burnley's neighbourhoods is changing.

But it is not just physical changes; landlord licensing and accreditation schemes, anti-social behaviour schemes, extensive consultations and neighbourhood management are helping shape the heart of Burnley's neighbourhoods too.
