Communities and Local Government Secretary, Robert Jenrick MP said: “Too many towns feel neglected by Westminster politicians. This Government is committed to levelling up all parts of the country.
“That’s why we’re investing up to £25 million in 100 towns across the country. And I want local people to determine how that money is spent.”
Jake Berry MP added: “We are going further than any government before to level up every corner of our country.”
