Pride in Place weekly update - 16 March

A press release was issued on 17 March to raise wider awareness of the programme and the upcoming events. Every household within the funded area received a letter and flyer explaining Pride in Place and how to take part in the consultation.

All businesses received a follow‑up email announcing the new Chair of the Neighbourhood Board and encouraging them to promote the programme. Printed materials were delivered to organisations across the area, and the banner railings are now installed.

Ninety‑eight members of Our North Tyneside Voice who live in the funded area received an invitation to complete the online survey and attend the in‑person resident event. VCSE organisations who applied for funding to run their own engagement activities were asked to submit costs and session plans.
