You have so many ideas of how to spend the £20 million Pride in Place funding.
The good news is it's up to you - not politicians or civil servants in London - to make your own decisions!

At Big Local Gateshead in Dunston today for the opening of the “Pitt Stop” along with local councillor Brenda Clelland and Gateshead Mayor Freda Geddes. It’s brilliant to see how the space has been transformed in just a few months. With new homes next door on the way - it’s an exciting time locally

Last week Labour secured £20 million for Beacon Lough and Wrekenton. The 'Pride in Place' funding can be spent on a whole range of improvements, from local park improvements to fixing up empty buildings and shop fronts.
Most importantly - it's up to you - the residents - to decide how its spent.
