        Tourism/leisure-led
        -Tourism or leisure led regeneration projects are often based around historic sites.
        -Belfast's Titanic Quarter and castle sites in Warwick and Cardiff are examples of a tourism-led strategy.

        -Bronte Country in Yorkshire is marketed as the location where the Brontes wrote their famous novels.
        
        Tourism/leisure-led
        -Some custom-built facilities aiming to attract tourists can regenerate local areas.
        -Center Parcs and Butlins build custom built facilities with activities for families and tourists
        -Similarly, B&Bs in villages like Ambleside can attract tourists.
        -The Soho House group opened a Soho Farmhouse in a rural area to attract tourists there.
        
        Sport-led
        -Outdoor activity centres in forest parks can regenerate areas.
        -Activities like Go Ape (high wire climbing and zip wires) and forest parks like Thetford in Norfolk can attract people to an area.
        -In North Wales, at Blaenau Ffestiniog, visitors can do outdoor activities in old mine workings and quarries.
  - - - Rural areas - non-agricultural
        -Some non-agricultural methods of rebranding and regenerating rural areas are:
        
        Converting redundant farm buildings into offices.
        
        Tea shops.
        
        Campsites (e.g. the popular campsites in Abersoch in Wales).
        
        Art festivals.
        -Paintballing or clay pigeon shooting.
        -Music festivals like Glastonbury, CarFest or Houghton.
        
        Rural areas - environmental schemes
        -Some environmental ways of rebranding and regenerating rural areas are:
        
        Environmental Stewardship Schemes are land management schemes, which aim to improve water quality and farm wildlife.
        
        Planting woodland, which is administered by the Forestry Commission. Many areas like the New Forest are visited because of their woodland.
        
        Ecovillages, like Poundbury in Dorset, which aim to be environmentally and socially responsible. Poundbury was supported by Prince Charles.
        
        Rural Rebranding - Festivals
        -Music festivals in the UK like Glastonbury, CarFest or Houghton can all regenerate areas. In the USA, Coachella and Burning Man are two of the largest festivals. Festivals attract lots of tourists to an area.
        
        Rebranding - Agriculture
        Some agricultural ways to rebrand are to farm unusual animals like llamas, grow speciality flowers or open petting farms/zoos.
- - - - Environmental measures
        -Improvements in the quality of the environment according to air quality and water quality measures from the Environmental Agency's data.
        -Improvements in the amount of green space available to local residents.
        -Improvements in security and safety via neighbourhood redesign (pedestrian zones, lighting, street furniture, public art).
        -Evidence of tackling environmental stress factors (dereliction, industrial contamination, graffiti, litter and noise). This could be done using policing or projects to install double-glazing in local housing.
        
        Social measures
        -Net migration (more people moving into the area than leave the area).
        -demographic change from census data may indicate success. more young people moving into an area may signal success in creating jobs. having a broader range of ages may indicate a more balanced local area, which is good
        -a reduction in inequality in life expectancy and health outcomes in the local area and when compared with national averages. this could be obtainted using NHS or ONS data
        -Improvements in educational outcomes according to local school exam results.
  - - - Cultural differences
        -Lots of 'new' people may enter an area.
        -They may have different cultures and preferences because they are of different ages, cultural backgrounds or countries.
        -The establishment of a 'Chinatown' area in a new city may be loved by some and disliked by others.
        
        Demographic changes
        -Some local people may be forced out of an area.
        -elerdly people may dislike a region if it becomes busier and has less green space
        -Some people on lower incomes may not be able to afford to live in an area if it becomes more popular and the cost of living and housing rises.
        
        Change character of a place
        -New people, new jobs and new developments may change the character of a place and locals may like the status quo.
        -Building skyscrapers and office buildings in a previously rural town may tarnish the memories and attachment of local residents.
        -People's lived experiences, attachments and perceptions will affect their view of a place.
        
        Success - Value Judgments
        The establishment of a 'Chinatown' area in a new city may be loved by some and disliked by others. Measuring 'success' is inherently subjective. Different people will have different views.
  - - - Residents
        -Residents will want higher quality housing at a lower price.
        -Residents are also likely to want more employment opportunities, better community facilities and a better feeling of well-being and belonging.
        
        Property developers
        -Property developers will seek to maximise their profits by building more houses or offices and selling or renting them at a higher price.
        
        National government
        -National governments are likely to want to fit any regional development strategy into their national strategy.
        
        For example, the 2010-15 target for 200,000 houses to be built each year.
