ORCHARD Park has been named in the Government's list of “trailblazer neighbourhoods” that are each set to receive up to £20m.

In the eagerly awaited Spending Review, revealed by Chancellor Rachel Reeves, the government announced funding boosts for the likes of social housing, transport, defense, and the NHS in an attempt to “deliver Britain's renewal.”

In addition to the headline-grapping announcements made by Ms Reeves, the Government also announced funding for 25 “trailblazer neighbourhoods” that will each receive up to £20m over the next ten years.
