This downloadable checklist on creating a town centre recovery plan provides a valuable resource to local leaders in responding to the COVID-19 crisis. It supplements the updated revitalising town centres online toolkit that the People & Places Partnership has prepared for the Local Government Association (LGA) and can be read alongside our free, downloadable checklist for managing town centre streets and public spaces in 2020.
The checklist builds on earlier research on creating a town centre recovery plan published by the People & Places Partnership in May 2020. It adopts and adapts the methodology adapted from the Institute of Place Management’s national post-COVID 19 recovery framework which shares much in common with the Forward Framework approach advocated in the LGA’s existing Revitalising Town Centres Toolkit. Essentially both frameworks place a strong emphasis on evidence-based planning and delivery whilst focusing on shaping the how (partnership development) and what (action planning & delivery) of recovery/revitalisation.
