Darren Barrenger, community activist and former parliamentary candidate

Darren has joined the Brightlingsea and Rural Board of INTend, which is the regeneration company formed by Tendring District Council. Darren was invited to join the newly formed company to bring his experience from the Community Reach Partnership (CRP) to support the rural communities around the Tendring District.

INTend is the trading name of Tendring Regeneration Ltd which was incorporated as a limited company on the 4 April 2008. The companies objectives are to assist, promote, encourage, develop and secure the regeneration in the social, physical and economic environment of Tendring District in North East Essex. 

It has been set up by Tendring District Council and given the brief to deliver its major regeneration projects including the multi-million pound regeneration schemes for historic Harwich and the next phase of Clacton town centre. Many of the projects already have funding allocated but part of the challenge will be to turn ideas into reality.

INTend will work closely with our communities to ensure that all our residents have access to facilities and services that substantially enhance their quality of life. 

The Company is run by a private and public sector Board of Directors whose Founder Members are drawn from all the major political groups of Tendring District Council
