David Savage, the Chair of Millom Town Deal Board, said:
“Following our events in September, we’ve lined up more pop-up events, taking on board feedback from residents. These pop up events are hosted by Town Deal Board Members and are focussed on answering residents questions.
“The events will be held at different venues, dates and times over next few months to give everyone an opportunity to come along and be in the know. We look forward to meeting you.”
At the events residents will get to hear the latest information on the Millom Town Deal as well as meeting Town Deal Board Members.
They can ask questions or get more information on each of the Town Deal projects:
- Iron Line.
- Activating Community Health.
- Reactivating Heritage Buildings.
- Connected Millom and Haverigg.
Millom Town Deal secured £20.6 million in November 2022 with an additional £8.7 million in match funding to help the town and its communities to thrive in the future.
Working with Cumberland Council, the external funding will be used to deliver the four projects.
