Conwy County Borough Council has been allocated a total of £24.5m to invest and spend by March 2025.
Some of the core Shared Prosperity Fund has been committed to the establishment of ‘Community Regeneration’, ‘Supporting Local Businesses’, ‘People and Skills’ and ‘Voluntary Sector’ Key Funds.

- The timescale for delivery of the UKSPF is short; this means that all projects will need to be completed and final claims submitted by 30 November 2024 at the very latest, to allow time for closure of the programme.
- The eligible period for expenditure under the UKSPF is from 1 April 2022. Applicants may therefore include an element of retrospective expenditure within their applications. Note that any expenditure incurred by applicants prior to signing a grant funding agreement will be entirely at their own risk.
- In submitting an application, you will authorise the Council(s) to make any necessary enquiries to check any information that is required for the administration of the UKSPF programme. The information you provide may also be shared with others as stated within our privacy notice.
