Support for pop-ups and stalls, sprucing up frontages for high street shops and an augmented reality trail are among the ways a £2m pot of money will be spent.
North Tyneside Council’s cabinet has approved the allocation of the cash earmarked for the regeneration of Wallsend town centre. The money, from North of Tyne Combined Authority, will be spread over five projects.
£350,000 will go towards business support for small businesses including pop-ups and stalls on Wallsend High Street. The cash will also pay for business advice and signposting for digital advice.
