CPR Regeneration

Who we are

CPR Regeneration is Cornwall's Urban Regeneration Company (URC) set up in November 2002 to help bring prosperity back to Camborne, Pool and Redruth, a continuous five-mile corridor of urban development along the inland western spine of Cornwall.

Once renowned for its mining and engineering industries, the area now faces a number of long-term challenges that are being addressed by CPR Regeneration and its partners.

CPR Regeneration is one of 18 urban regeneration companies in the UK and brings together funding partners, local stakeholders and the private sector to focus investment and to deliver "joined up" regeneration projects.

Its aim is to ensure that the area is regenerated in a sustainable way with a range of new homes and employment opportunities alongside community and leisure facilities in an improved environment.

CPR Regeneration's funding partners are Cornwall Council, the Homes and Communities Agency, and the South West of England Regional Development Agency.

Since April 2010 CPR Regeneration has been a subsidiary company of the Cornwall Development Company Ltd. Cornwall Development Company is in itself a subsidiary of Cornwall Council.  CPR Regeneration remains a legal entity and any contracts that are in place with CPR Regeneration will remain in force in accordance with their terms.
