Pride in Place funding areas named

The government’s Pride in Place Programme will see up to £5 billion given to nearly 250 areas across the UK. Each area will receive up to £20 million of funding and support over the next 10 years to make long-term improvements that residents want.

With Pride in Place, residents, businesses, and community groups will deliver real improvements that matter to local people. This is led by local people and backed by the UK government.

Communities will be able to spend the funding on what matters most to them - from improvements to pavements and high streets to investing in culture and green spaces.
