3. The West of England Placemaking Charter and the 15-minute neighbourhood
Juliet Bidgood
In 2020 research for the West of England Placemaking Charter engaged with 250 stakeholder representing interests from the built and natural environment sector, public and private sector developers, culture and health experts, local interest groups, communities and young people. As the impact of the pandemic unfolded people were increasingly interested in the idea of the 15-minute neighbourhood and in the role of sociable neighbourhood adaptation and creation in placemaking. This thinking is now part of the Draft Placemaking Charter Framework.
