Scotland's Regeneration Forum (SURF) is the independent regeneration forum for Scotland. It seeks to improve regeneration policy and practice and works closely with policy-makers in the Scottish Government and its agencies. The organisation was established in 1992 and has offices in Glasgow and Edinburgh.[1]
One of SURF's main activities is the annual SURF Awards for Best Practice in Community Regeneration, which has been running since 1998.[2] The SURF Awards are delivered in partnership with the Scottish Government.[3]
SURF also operates a programme called the Alliance for Action, which supports practical regeneration activities in several Scottish places including Govan, Kirkcaldy and Rothesay.[4]
