Case Study: Understanding Irish Towns

Town Centre First aims to create town centres that function as viable, vibrant and attractive locations for people to live, work and visit, while also functioning as the service, social, cultural and recreational hub for the local community.

Town Centre First (TCF) lays the foundation for each town to develop, at a local level, their own plan-led path forward. This will be expressed through a tailored TCF plan which is underpinned by a clear diagnosis of local strengths and challenges. This TCF Plan is driven by the local community and businesses as part of a Town Team who are supported by Town Regeneration Officers and technical expertise within each Local Authority.

Didobi was commissioned to investigate available data to create evaluation and modelling of Ireland’s towns in support of the TCF initiative.
