New Deal for Communities (NDC)
A partnership-based Government regeneration scheme designed to tackle the causes of multiple deprivation at a neighbourhood level, in 39 areas across England.
It will run for ten years until 2008/09.
Further information
A list of the 39 NDC areas can be found on the Neighbourhood Renewal Unit website. Each NDC has varying remits dependent upon the issues facing their area. Some are more focused upon jobs and skills, whilst others are focused upon liveability and the physical environment.
Charlestown and Lower Kersal in Salford is an example of a New Deal for Communities area.
Phase 2 of the evaluation of NDC is currently being undertaken and will run until November 2009.
