UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF)

The government allocated £9.193m to help us fund local projects. In addition, we will receive £2.127m from the Multiply Programme to support adults in improving their numeracy skills. In total, we will receive £11.32m over three years.

Our investment priorities

The primary goal of the UKSPF is to build pride in place and increase life chances. The fund will improve the place people live in, and support individuals and business. 

The investment plan will focus on three priorities:

  1. Communities and place
  2. Supporting local businesses
  3. People and skills
