Overview

A key element for the strategy is the establishment of Neighbourhood Partnerships in each Neighbourhood Renewal area as a vehicle for local planning and implementation. Each Neighbourhood Partnership should include representatives of key political, statutory, voluntary, community and private sector stakeholders. Together, they will be expected to develop long term visions and action plans designed to deliver improvements to the area.

The top 10% of deprived neighbourhoods across Northern Ireland has been identified using the New Noble Multiple Deprivation Measure. Following consultation, this resulted in a total of 36 areas being targeted for action.

The areas include:

  • 15 in Belfast,
  • 6 in Londonderry and
  • 15 in other towns and cities across Northern Ireland.

How to Apply

For more information contact the Neighbourhood Renewal Unit for more information or directly to your own relevant Neighbourhood Renewal Partnership.

It is adviseable to make contact with you local neighbourhood renewal partnerships at a very early stage of considering an application/approach for funding.
