We awarded small grants to 15 organisations totaling £13,600, to carry out Pride in Place consultation with their community in Bootle.

Organisations used a variety of engagement methods and worked with different demographics to build up a picture of what local residents would like the funding spent on. The board will use these outcomes to put together a 10 year vision for Bootle.
