The Castlefields Masterplan was not just concerned with transforming the physical environment of the neighbourhood; it was a masterplan for the people who live there.

One focus has been improving the health, well-being and aspirations of local children and young people. The most positive impacts to date have come from provision of youth facilities at Phoenix Park, giving young people a safe place where they can play, relax, meet up with friends. The park is easily accessible by pedestrians and cyclists from both Castlefields and Windmill Hill.
More recently the Partnership has been working with the Halton Education Business Partnership and Castlefields four Primary Schools to develop an enterprise game for the neighbourhood. The aim of the Castlefields' Primary Enterprise Game is to increase the aspirations of the local children, teach them about how the business world operates and highlight future career opportunities. Find out more about the enterprise game.
Other successes in this programme strand include:
The on-going regeneration of the area, enhancing the local environment, and giving people an affordable and decent home, continues to improve the quality of life of the people who live in Castlefields.
Specific current projects regarding people and employment include a dedicated Neighbourhood Employment and Engagement Officer now operates within the Castlefields and Windmill Hill area. If you would like to find out more about this service contact Marilyn Payne on 07909 000040.
