Levelling-up fund of £71million unveiled to boost 10 projects in Northern Ireland

The Government has said 10 projects in Northern Ireland will share £71million of levelling-up funding.

The funding will include almost £10million to create new waterfront gardens in the city of Bangor, transforming the former Maghera High School into a new industrial park at a cost of £9million and £20 million to create a new leisure and wellbeing centre in Enniskillen.

The grants also include a £5.1million boost for 20 local rugby clubs, including new female changing rooms to help increase women's participation in sport across Northern Ireland. There is also £4million pledged to rescue East Belfast's art-deco Strand Picturehouse.
