£675m Future High Streets Fund Opens for Applications
02/01/2019
A new fund which forms part of the government’s policy paper 'Our Plan for the High Street', providing co-funding towards capital projects that bring transformative change in England’s high streets, has opened to applications.
The Future High Streets Fund aims to renew and reshape town centres and high streets in a way that improves experience, drives growth and ensures future sustainability. In this first phase of the programme, local authorities in England are being asked to define the specific challenges faced by their high streets. They should set out their overarching strategic ambition for what their high street or town centre should become and what needs to happen to achieve this.
