Thames Estuary Fairness Plan
We developed an evidence-based fairness plan for the Thames Estuary Growth Board to ensure investment in the region is directly addressing the challenges faced by communities
Project overview
PRD developed an in-depth evidence base exploring the social and economic challenges across the Thames Estuary region. We used this to identify focus neighbourhoods within which Chris Clarke, our collaborator, carried out detailed conversations with residents. Our report was structured around the Fairness Foundation’s “Fair Necessities” (essentials, opportunities, rewards, exchange and treatment) and combines detailed mapping of indicators across the region with summaries and quotations from on the ground engagement.
From this evidence, we developed a five-point fairness plan of practical recommendations for how inward investment into the Estuary can respond to and address local need.
The Thames Estuary Growth Board have adopted the Five Point Fairness Plan as a key strategic document to guide all their operations. The methodology of highly local evidence analysis and targeted conversations has been replicated by developers across the region to ensure that social value contributions are directly addressing local need.
