Pride in Place Programme

We have been allocated £1.5 million through the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) Pride in Place Impact Fund to deliver a programme of physical improvements across the borough. The funding is to be spent by March 2027. 

The proposed programme has been shaped by community engagement including the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) and working with all four of Croydon's Members of Parliament. 

The programme focuses on three themes:

• community spaces
• public spaces
• high street and town centre revitalisation

It includes:

• improvements to parks and playgrounds
• support for community groups
• enhancements to public spaces
• targeted high street improvements. 

Projects have been identified on the basis of initial feasibility, from all areas of the borough to ensure that that many residents will benefit from the investment.  

Updates about the Pride in Place Impact Fund will be shared here as projects progress and are delivered.
