Neighbourhood Economic Development Programme (NEDP)
Through our Neighbourhood Economic Development Programme, we provided grant assistance for 17 community-based organisations to help them engage in local regeneration and economic development activities. The funding awarded amounts to over £300,000 and will be used to deliver projects with a focus on the areas and communities most in need.
