Our town, our future.
What is ‘Pride in Place?’
Pride in Place is a government communities scheme which offers local people the power to shape the future of their neighbourhood.
Neighbourhood Boards, made up of local people, will decide how to invest this funding, supported by their MP and the local authority.
Central Lowestoft has been awarded up to £20 million each in Pride in Place Programme funding over a 10 year period.
Pride in place funding is based on three core objectives:
To create thriving places
Every part of the UK deserves to have vibrant neighbourhoods and communities with busy high streets, a good range of local amenities and high-quality physical infrastructure.
To empower people to take back control
Talent is spread equally but opportunity is not. Everybody should be empowered and in control of their lives and have a say over the future of their community.
Build stronger communities
All places should have strong relationships and a collective sense of belonging to their community. This helps bring people together to build community cohesion and resilience, helping people to feel proud of their area and safe in their neighbourhood.
