The Community Levelling Up Programme has c. £9.3m grant funding available (capital and revenue) to enable locally based projects to tackle deprivation and level up communities across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. CLUP can invest in the following priorities: a. The creation or renovation of community buildings that will increase local opportunities, economic activity, and pride in place b. Work that will improve public spaces and boost local regeneration c. Projects supporting community engagement in local decision making d. Proposals that will make community spaces more accessible and sustainable The requirement of this contract is to carry out a full programme evaluation for the Community Levelling Up Programme (https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/business-trading-and-licences/economic-development/c...).
