Tameside Council Invests $1M in Local Pride | Manchester News

Tameside Council just poured nearly a million dollars into 24 community projects across the borough, funded by the Pride in Place Impact Fund to revitalize neighborhoods and boost local pride. From upgraded libraries and sports clubs to safer parks and refurbished community centers, the investment targets everything from accessibility improvements to historic wall restorations. A few councilors recused themselves from votes tied to projects where they had personal interests — a transparent move to avoid conflicts. The focus steers clear of already-invested areas like Ashton and Hattersley, prioritizing underserved spots. Council leader Eleanor Wills praised the initiative, highlighting how local groups know their communities best and are driving real, lasting change through smarter design, greener spaces, and stronger public infrastructure.
