The countdown is on for young people and local businesses to have their say in two easy online surveys that will help to shape the future of King’s Lynn.

A further step forward for King’s Lynn’s £25m Town Deal will be made next week when the Council’s Cabinet and the Town Deal Board are asked to sign off the final project confirmations and their prioritisation ahead of them being submitted to the Government.

A vision for St George’s Guildhall will be developed over the coming months with a number of partners set to work together to outline a shared ambition for the much-loved theatre.

Town Deal Board members were delighted to hear today’s Government announcements, that King’s Lynn’s Town Deal Board had been allocated the maximum amount of £25,000,000 to press ahead with a range of projects.

A bid for a town deal of up to £25million has been submitted by the Town’s Board and while a funding announcement is expected towards the end of this month, the board continues to develop its ideas and plans under the Town Investment Plan.
