Good news. In fact, really good news.

Date Added: 14/04/2022

The Government is giving us £4.9million to help our local communities to grow and thrive.

We will receive £3.5million from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund which is designed to build pride in where people live and increase life chances across the UK. The funding will support local people to gain high-quality skills, important training and ultimately rewarding jobs.

The funding will help us address challenges faced in our town centres and communities. It will enable us to identify and fund improvements in places where people live and support residents and businesses. We intend to enhance the things that matter most to you and our local communities, foster local pride and offer opportunities to all.

We will also benefit from an indicative allocation of close to £1.4million from the Government’s Multiply programme, to support adults to improve their numeracy skills. We will use this funding to invest in appropriate courses to enable more residents to make real progress in their lives and get good, well-paid jobs.

We want local people to live their best lives, both now and in the future, and we are determined to create opportunities for all people in all parts of Central Bedfordshire.

The next step is to submit Investment Plans to Government for their approval, focused on creating a sense of local pride, creating jobs, boosting skills, and supporting people into work.
