Harlow Renaissance is a partnership dedicated to the regeneration of Harlow, creating a more successful and prosperous town
Our role is to engage, inform and inspire people with the delivery of a range of renewal programmes in the immediate term, whilst paving the way for longer term growth opportunities and a more prosperous town.
Harlow Renaissance will be working with stakeholders, residents, businesses, employees, developers, investors and visitors to ensure that everyone’s voice is heard.
We’re led by our core principles:
- Openness to the community
- Accountability through our members
- Active involvement of stakeholders in the design and delivery of our work
- A desire to add value to work that is being done in Harlow
- A commitment to high quality in all that we do and in all that we deliver
Upon its formation, Harlow demonstrated a cutting edge approach to town planning with an innovative Masterplan. Much of this is still relevant for the 21st century and it is important that we build on the strong heritage that Harlow has.
However, now sixty years old, parts of Harlow are in need of rejuvenation and there is a need to plan for appropriate growth. Nobody can foresee what the future will bring, but what is certain is that we all have an important role to play in shaping its direction. For our part, Harlow Renaissance will deliver a series of activities designed to regenerate the town, particularly in relation to housing, the town centre and the town’s business base. We seek to work with our partners and with local communities to recapture the dynamic image that the town had upon its creation. More details of our work can be found in the Projects section of this website.
