East of England projects to get over £3.5m in government funds
The government said the money will help grow local economies, boost “national renewal” and restore community pride by bringing people together.
Action4Youth has been given £300,000 to refurbish the George Amey Centre in Milton Keynes, to be used as a centre for outdoor education and to support the charity’s work to tackle knife and gang crime.
Ms Cameron, from the charity said: “We are so grateful to have funding which will enable us to complete our renovation project and to ensure the future of the outdoor centre which benefits 15,000 children and young people each year.”
Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner said: “These projects represent what is so special about communities across the UK – bringing people of all ages together, providing vital support and giving them a sense of purpose and belonging.”
