The Prince's Regeneration Trust

Formerly the Director of Regeneration Through Heritage (an initiative established by HRH The Prince of Wales), now within The Prince’s Regeneration Trust. Fred qualified as a Town Planner and held posts with several English local authorities before moving to the London Borough of Hackney, one of London’s most economically disadvantaged boroughs, where, as Assistant Chief Executive, he was responsible for Strategic Policy and Regeneration.

Fred has managed regeneration projects promoting the re-use of heritage buildings, primarily by assisting community partnerships to develop projects, and supports projects worth £60 million. He has been a Board member of a major Housing Association, is Secretary of a voluntary advice centre in the multi-racial community of Brixton, and regularly writes and speaks on the regeneration of heritage industrial buildings. He is the author of The Prince’s Regeneration Trust Handbook which advises on steps required to rescue a heritage building.

Fred says: ‘‘In 1996 The Prince of Wales had the brilliant idea of creating an initiative to help community partnerships regenerate heritage buildings that were redundant or ‘at risk’. Regenerating heritage buildings wasn’t on anyone’s agenda at that time.

I was a London borough chief officer responsible for regeneration and strategic management, and was recruited for two years to set it up and I am involved to this day. I have worked with communities all over the United Kingdom and together we have conserved and regenerated all kinds of buildings, creating new jobs, homes, and community and education facilities.

I am constantly amazed by the untapped energy and enthusiasm in communities, and how much people care about their built environment, and how hard they will fight to save an old building they love. People have discovered that if they want to get something done they will probably have to do it themselves, and I have discovered that with encouragement and support they can tackle the most daunting building.

The Trust aims to share our skills and experience to empower more communities to regenerate the United Kingdom’s heritage buildings, and enable more people when confronted by official indifference, or doubt about their capability, to shout, ‘Yes we can!’. I can’t think of a better job.”
