Over the next ten years, up to £20 million will be invested in Blakenall through a programme called Pride in Place.
But Blakenall has seen programmes, funding and promises come and go before.
So What makes this different?
This time, it does not start with a plan or a list of ideas written somewhere else. It starts with people.
The people who know these streets. The people who already care. The people who quietly get things done every day.
No priorities have been chosen and no plan has been written. The first step is to listen across Blakenall and make sure the people who know this place best help shape what happens next.
Money Doesn't build communities.
people in Blakenall do.
Pride in Place brings a significant opportunity for Blakenall. But the money is only part of the story.
What matters, what gets backed and where investment goes should be shaped by people who live here.
Not only the loudest voices.
Not only the people already sitting around tables.
The people who care about Blakenall and want to be part of what comes next.
