Since the decline of tin mining, china clay extraction, fishing and agriculture in Cornwall, the area is recognised as one of the poorest in the UK. It is one of four UK areas that qualify for poverty-related grants from the EU. To begin to address some of the issues around the lack of employment in the area ASF, in partnership with the Eden Project, are developing a small piece of land, ideally located adjacent to the Alchemy Building and opposite Eden’s Waste Neutral Centre which will act as an ongoing laboratory for training and experimentation, and will become a show place of innovation of products and construction technologies derived from waste.
