Just under three years ago, work started on getting this project off the ground and today I’m super proud and excited that the full funding has been secured and it really will happen. Still a lot of hard work yet to do and a long time before it will be finished and ready to open (late 2024), but the National Lottery Heritage Fund have seen the potential this beautiful building has and how integral it is to the town’s regeneration. This really is something to look forward to and be positive about !
Kirklees Council and the Dewsbury Town Deal Board will receive a £4.5million investment from the National Heritage Lottery Fund to support the development of the historic Dewsbury Arcade.
