Five coastal projects across Wales to share £1m grant
Five coastal community projects across Wales are set to benefit from a £1m grant.
Under the Coastal Communities Fund, money is available for projects which boost the economy of coastal communities across the UK. It is provided by the Big Lottery Fund on behalf of the UK and Welsh governments. Projects in Bridgend county, Flintshire and Neath Port Talbot are to benefit from a share of the £1,067,332 grant. Minister for Communities and Tackling Poverty, Lesley Griffiths, said: "The funding will enable coastal communities to make the most of these natural features, enhancing the areas' tourist potential and driving local growth and jobs." How will the money be spent?
