The Levelling Up Fund is designed to secure capital investment in infrastructure that has the potential to improve lives and give people pride in their communities. In January 2023, £8M in Levelling Up funding was awarded to East Lindsey.
The funding will support the delivery of cultural and tourism projects in Alford and Spilsby, securing the future of heritage assets and providing new reasons to visit the Lincolnshire Wolds.
The projects
- Spilsby Sessions House
Spilsby Sessions House will be brought back into use as a theatre and as a community-owned space. The listed building also has a significant place in history, for its past use as a jail, and funding will allow the building’s old police cells to be opened to the public, creating a new visitor attraction.
