Agenda item

Director of Community and Children’s Services to be heard.

Members noted that this funding was now in its 5th year and the City Corporation could now apply for  multi-year funding, which was considerably more helpful to longer term planning.  The latest bid had been submitted in February and officers were optimistic following recent communications with the Department of Levelling Up.  Members would receive a more detailed update at the next meeting, by which time the funding should have been agreed.
