About This Live Project

The Live Project aims to reconsider the estate in terms of navigation, identity, ownership, connections, environment, community, security and the long term future of Lansdowne

We hope to raise aspirations for the area and challenge the view that the estate is fixed with little opportunity for local people to make an impact in their built environment.

We aim to devise forms of communication and representation that can creatively engage people living in the estate, tackling architectural issues for the shared spaces in the estate.

This may be in the form of physical permanent and/or temporary interventions within Lansdowne.

stakeholder version 02 and the Sharrow NAG


With a clearer idea of the relationships between various groups involved in the project, the Lansdowne team are now able to present version 02 of the stakeholder. Over the last week or so, it's become clear that Sheffield Homes, Sharrow Partnership and Sharrow Community Forum could regarded as a multi-headed client group. For the most part they share similar aspirations for the estate and the quality of life for the estate's residents.
Our stakeholder also appears to be growing in terms of the number of groups involved in improving the Sharrow area. Ari, Heather and Leanna attended a Sharrow NAG meeting last week and were introduced to members of Activity Sheffield, Sheffield Futures, South Yorkshire Police, as well as the youth football club Kickz. The meeting proved useful for the team in terms of finding out information for current proposals for funding youth projects, targeting anti-social behaviour and vandalism, as well as, establishing a wider context than just the boundaries of the estate itself.
