AnnotationThe way urban neighbourhoods in Britain are organised is a key to reversing social exclusion, crime and poor performance on almost every front in our cities. This study for the Social Exclusion Unit of seven models of neighbourhood management analyses the reason for its key position in the national strategy for neighbourhood renewal. The study examines patterns of neighbourhood organisation, the costs and benefits of neighbourhood management based on existing models, and council and other sources of funding. To work well, neighbourhood management must have a dedicated budget, a senior manager in control locally, immediate security and environmental targets, and resident involvement. Costs are relatively modest, but must be properly funded: the benefits are indispensable as the experiments show, and are underlined by continental experience. (RH).
