What is the Brent Cross Town Flourishing Index?

The Flourishing Index is a long-term (10-year) research project. It measures the wellbeing of individuals and communities in and around Brent Cross Town. It is built around a central question: how can the regeneration of Brent Cross Town improve the wellbeing of the local population?

Early in the development of Brent Cross Town, four pledges were made. One of these pledges was that Brent Cross Town would be a place “where all can flourish”. Brent Cross Town has teamed up with researchers to find out how this can best be achieved and to research what needs to be done.

More details about Brent Cross Town’s Flourishing Index and what the research has discovered already can be found here.

Brent Cross Town is the new park town at the heart of the Brent Cross Cricklewood regeneration programme, which is being delivered in partnership between Related Argent and Barnet Council.
