CABE Space

Spaceshaper - A tool to help assess the quality of public space before investing time and money into it.

Spaceshaper captures the views of professionals who are running the space as well as those of the people that use the space. Facilitated workshops discuss the results, design quality and how the space works for different people.

Spaceshaper encourages people to demand more from their local spaces.

 

 

 

Neighbourhoods Green is funded through CABE Space, Natural England, the Green Flag Plus Partnership and Groundwork UK. The partnership is supported by the National Housing Federation, the Landscape Institute, the Wildlife Trusts and a number of social landlords.
