Applications have opened for a chair to lead the Marsh Farm Neighbourhood Board in Luton, which will help decide how up to £20 million of Pride in Place funding is spent over the next decade.
The board will bring together residents, businesses and community organisations to gather local views and develop priorities for the area. Luton Council said it was looking for a community champion with the ability to bring people together and ensure the funding reflects what Marsh Farm residents need most.
Council leader Tahmina Saleem said Marsh Farm had a strong sense of community and that the board offered local people a significant opportunity to shape the future of their neighbourhood. Recruitment for the role is being supported by the council.
