Collaboration by estates with their communities and other partners will result in a long-term increased confidence in the sector, and recognition of their role in delivering public benefits.

Policy-makers, public agencies and other stakeholders need to support engagement and collaboration. They need to engage more effectively and commit to joint projects.
