The Protecting Community Assets Inquiry is a short, defined piece of work seeking to identify practical ways to protect existing community assets in England for the long-term benefit of local communities.
It has brought together a wide range of contributors all of whom have direct experience of managing, supporting or funding community assets and who have been willing not just to understand the challenges and opportunities but help shape some practical next steps.
Our interim report was published on 17 September 2019 and we are actively seeking contributions to fill in the gaps in our collective knowledge and understanding, and most importantly gather interest or support to take specific ideas forward.
