What is Big Local Somers Town?
Somers Town has been selected as a Big Local area.
Big Local is a Big Lottery programme working in 150 areas of England, so residents will receive at least £1 million in lottery funding over 10 years to work together to make long-lasting, positive change in the area.
Big Local funding is to be invested in what we think will make a real difference to Somers Town and these three dates (overleaf) have been set up for us to share our ideas:
When we agree what is important to you, a detailed plan of how to use the funding to make that difference will be compiled.
We 'll form a local ‘partnership’ of residents (on: (date) at: ) who would like to be involved in the planning and that can include local organisations.
It' s important that you come along (on one of these 3 dates overleaf) to give your views to make sure Somers Town’s £1m is spent on what local people really need and to make the area (even) better. It is also important that there are a good number of residents engaging in the regular future (“Partnership”) planning meetings.
