Local organisations came together to discuss priorities for Kingstanding’s £20 million ‘Pride in Place’ Fund. The consultation session, led by local MP, Paulette Hamilton, focused on how the significant investment can best serve the community’s needs.
Paulette said, “This funding is a major opportunity for Kingstanding, and it is vital that local voices shape how it is used.
“Hearing directly from the organisations working on the ground every day was an essential first step. Their insight is invaluable in identifying the projects that will make the most positive, lasting difference for our area.”
The ‘Pride in Place’ Fund represents a transformative investment aimed at improving local infrastructure, community facilities, and public spaces.
