The New Economics Foundation (NEF) report on improving Twickenham Town Centre was written in 2009 but it seems that some of the recommendations still apply to bring about the regeneration of the centre of Twickenham. Examples from the report are: Leisure and Nature Assets can include exceptional natural beauty; the presence of rivers and venues for leisure activities such as swimming pools and leisure centres. Twickenham Riverside The Riverside site, which, when linked to the town centre, could increase the reasons for visiting Twickenham town centre. Play on Twickenham’s strengths, do not attempt to compete blindly with other similar towns. OPEN UP THE RIVERSIDE. Cinema The opportunity to develop a cinema. Developing Council Owned Sites Adopting an approach of seeking the “best consideration”: a mix of getting a reasonable price plus a range of community benefits – when disposing of or developing council-owned sites – rather than always seeking the ‘best price’.
