Activity

In partnership with Action Together and We Make Places CIC, we firstly did asset mapping in six neighbourhoods through local connectors in neighbourhoods in Knowsley, Oldham and Salford. Asset mapping is a guide to relationship building and a process for engaging a community to unlock people’s talents to make it better. We produced asset maps for: Stockbridge Village; Fitton Hill; Eccles; Irlam and Cadishead; Little Hulton and Walkden; and Swinton and Clifton. 

Asset mapping is only the start of a long-term process by the whole organisation. Our findings and recommendations from asset mapping are reflected in the What Matters to Us report, which outlined key aspects for future development. 

Following this, we supported the development and delivery of the ‘next steps’ to embed asset-based approaches (including community-led innovation) and to support the building of relationships within communities and within ForHousing
