Burnham pledges extra £210m towards regenerating boarded-up high streets

Burnham has committed an additional £210 million to support regeneration projects on high streets that have closed during the pandemic. The money will help local communities convert vacant shops, pubs and clubs into community hubs, shared workspaces and cafés. The initiative aims to revitalize retail districts and create new local employment opportunities and foster economic resilience across the region.
