Communities in the programme

Pride in Place is about more than writing a plan. It is about giving communities the confidence to make informed investment decisions, build local capability and deliver meaningful change over the next decade.

UrbanCat has created this free Resource Hub to help Neighbourhood Boards, local authorities and community organisations access practical templates, learn from other places and share ideas from across the programme.

You don't need a large consultancy.

You need confidence in your evidence, practical resources and the tools to build local capability.

That's what UrbanCat is here to provide.
