Background
The Fryerns and Craylands Estate areas in Basildon are historically separated by physical and emotional boundaries. The scheme's aim is to develop a Multi-Neighbourhood Centre within the central area between the estates that contains shops, new houses, an adult education building, a heath centre, play spaces, green links and new roads. It is hoped that this Centre will allow the community to enliven the cross over points and improve their well being and environment.
The People Speak have been commissioned to inform proposals and to create a cohesive, enjoyable and visually stimulating environment, providing creative opportunities for people to become involved in shaping their environments. This will begin to inform the Basildon Regeneration Programme.

“We've just been given the use of an old laundry room by Swan Housing which we're converting into a studio. Our plan is to be there on a weekly basis – turning ideas we've heard from people into visualisations and videos of the potential future of Craylands.”
