Torbay Council has been awarded £1.7m over 3 years, to spend on local investment through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, part of the UK Government’s Levelling Up agenda.

This fund is being used to support local businesses, boost opportunities for local people and create spaces for communities to enjoy with the aim of building a Torbay where people are proud to live, work and visit.

Some funds have already been allocated (see https://investintorbay.com/ukspf/) and details of the first 5 exciting projects can be seen : https://investintorbay.com/ukspf-projects/

Are you a provider of employability skills or interested in People and Skills? If so, we’d love 90 minutes of your time on Thur 6th July 2-3.30pm to take part in a virtual session to provide feedback about the plans and help us shape the services around the needs of the Torbay community.
