Working alongside Layer.studio and PLACED, we are supporting Bury Council and the Radcliffe Neighbourhood Board to prepare Radcliffe’s 10-Year Pride in Place Regeneration Plan, helping to shape a long-term regeneration vision rooted in local priorities, community engagement and evidence-led decision making.

The government’s new Pride in Place Programme represents a significant shift in how regeneration funding is delivered, placing communities much closer to the centre of decision making through locally led Neighbourhood Boards and longer-term place investment plans.

We secured £24m of Good Growth funding for the Heaton Group through a fiercely competitive process. Without this essential grant, the project simply couldn’t proceed. Acting as the keystone between key players at GMCA and Wigan Council, we coordinated a compelling funding submission that demonstrated the scheme’s transformational potential.

Town centre regeneration is a political priority across Greater Manchester, but delivery depends on making the numbers work. Cotton Works is designed to be the catalyst that unlocks wider investment in Wigan town centre. It demonstrates what’s possible when you align public sector ambition with private sector capability, creating places that actually work for local people. That’s what this funding achieves.
