Lottery Funded
 
Do you live on the Racecourse, Teams or Derwentwater estate?
Did you know that £1 million of Big Lottery Funding is on its way?

The £1 million is to support local people’s ideas for improving their neighbourhoods over the next 10 years.

The funding will be used for developing new ideas with local residents and local organisations.

What do you think about where you live?
Conversations have started with local residents about how they would like to see the funding used.

Look out!
Look out for Survey Forms in various locations within the area e.g. doctor’s surgery, community centre, community projects, shops, schools etc.

A short Survey has already been delivered to every household on the 3 estates.

Please take the time to complete the Survey – your opinions matter!
Everyone is being encouraged to complete the Survey as a first step towards identifying ideas for improving life in local areas.

Get involved
We want local people to get involved by talking to their neighbours and families about the Lottery funding, asking them for their ideas and helping to plan how to spend the money over the next 10 years. If you have any new ideas you can also use the website www.ourgateshead.org/blt to tell us about them.
