• A positive meeting took place with Hanover Housing Association who agreed to incorporate community benefits into their procurement process for future builds. At the time of the meeting the award of the build at Thorndene Terrace was due to be announced and it was not possible to incorporate community benefits, however, the successful contractor (CCG Scotland) provided one training opportunity. 7.10 These positive outcomes demonstrate the value of incorporating community benefits in the procurement process and supports Falkirk Council’s commitment to increasing skills and employability for those priority clients of working age that are currently unemployed. 54
8. REGENERATION 8.1 One of the key themes in the Council’s Corporate Plan is tackling disadvantage and discrimination and it is clear that investment in housing and regeneration activity can play a major role in helping to achieve sustainable improvements in particular priority areas. An important element in the Council’s Local Housing Strategy 2004- 09 was the creation of development opportunities for new social housing through the redevelopment of areas of low demand housing stock which had blighted local communities. 8.2 The SIMD 2009 (revised version) identified 17 data zones in the Falkirk Council area which fall within the worst 15% overall in Scotland (Map 2). There are a total of 197 data zones in Falkirk, each with an average population of 750. The “worst 15% data zones” are those where there are high aggregated measures of deprivation, based on income, employment, educational attainment, health and crime. 8.6% of Falkirk’s data zones fall within this definition of deprivation. This is a decrease of 1.4% since the previous SIMD data were published in 2006. Although there is no significant evidence of deprivation in relation to housing indices, it is considered that appropriate investment in housing conditions can play an important role in area regeneration strategies for specific priority estates. 8.3 Those local data zones in the worst 15% in Scotland form the basis of the Council’s and Community Planning Partnership’s ten Priority Areas in relation to the Community Regeneration Strategy (Map 3). Within these areas, housing investment, involving Council stock improvements and development partnership activity in respect of new social housing provision, will be taken forward through the Standard Delivery Plan (SDP) and Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP). 8.4 The Priority Areas referred to above include parts of: • Dawson, • Grangemouth, • Camelon, • High Rise Flats, Falkirk, • Maddiston, • Westquarter, • Bo’ness, • Denny, • ‘The Bog’ area, Falkirk, • ‘The Valley’ area, Stenhousemuir. 55
