Find out more about the community offer for Barne Barton residents
Barne Barton has a tight-knit community, who have been very involved in the regeneration. A highly effective Residents Steering Group has been driving the project forward and ensuring residents are at the heart of the creation of the new estate.
Community Involvement
The regeneration of Barne Barton has been commended by the Building with Nature accreditation scheme for its community involvement. There is an active residents’ steering group, which voices resident opinions on the regeneration. If you would like to have your say, join the group by emailing the regeneration team.
