Stapleford Town Deal
It was announced in September 2019 that £3.6bn is being made available to regenerate over 100 towns across the UK. Stapleford has been chosen as one of the towns to receive funding. Each town is set to receive up to £25m worth of investment in a number of areas.
The Government published a prospectus in October 2019 setting out the three areas of regeneration, the Towns Fund will focus on:
- urban regeneration, planning and land use,
- skills and enterprise infrastructure and
- connectivity

How will we get Stapleford a Towns Deal?
The Council, as the governing authority, convened the Executive Town Deal Board in January 2020. This Board to date has been working towards the creation and submission of Stapleford’s Town Investment Plan (TIP). This plan will set out the vision, strategy and outline projects for Stapleford. Ultimately acting as a bid document to justify our funding request.
To offer wider discussion with interested parties, a Stakeholder Group has also been put in place. The role of this group so far has been to support the production of the TIP; feeding views, wants and needs for Stapleford in to the Executive board.
Alongside this we have consulted with local residents, businesses and other interested organisations as to their own ideas and the ideas generated by the two boards. This feedback has been processed and is reflected in the final TIP document. Due for submission by 29th January 2021, there will be further opportunities to feedback on individual project proposals after the TIP has been submitted to Government.

The Town Deal area
On the announcement of the Towns Fund, the Government used the 'Stapleford BUASD' boundary provided by the Office of National Statistics, to initially define Stapleford. This is the geographic area to be represented by the Stapleford Town Deal board, where investments detailed in the TIP will occur.
