South Bank/Greater Eston base line study was established to establish the baseline position and design a robust strategy for a 25 year longitudinal assessment of the impact of the delivery of a large scale regeneration project: the Greater Eston Regeneration Master Plan. It recorded the journey of regeneration in South Bank to identify the impacts on the area and on local people's quality of life and wellbeing. It also provided a forum for residents and stakeholders to comment on (and potentially influence) the regeneration process.
