My friend Kevin Harris is producing some really thoughtful stuff over on his Neighbourhoods blog - and I don't say that just because of his kind words about the neighbourhood governance game we ran together recently. I'm behind in writing something myself on that, but meanwhile you can download a report.
Kevin has a report on the Young Foundation seminar last week - Community, consensus, and neighbourhood governance - news of fascinating mapping work with Social Tapestries in West London, a critical review of the evaluation of the Home Zones Challenge, and much more.
While the Government's official neighbourhood renewal site has lots of useful research, reports, factsheets and toolkits I think that it - and other government sites - would benefit from a few more front-line stories and conversations. We might get that if civil servants and Ministers are prepared to follow councillors in blogging about their work.
