Prof Darren Smith invited to give evidence to the House of Lords Select Committee on Regenerating Seaside Towns and Communities

Prof Darren Smith has been invited to give evidence to the House of Lords Select Committee on Regenerating Seaside Towns and Communities on 20th November 2018.

The committee focuses on policies aimed at improving the communities of seaside towns, which have been in long-term decline since the 1970s due to increased demand for foreign holidays. This has left many seaside towns with a poor economy, low housing prices, low salaries, and a widening economic gap between coastal and non-coastal towns.
