The Stronger Towns Fund has been provisionally allocated according to a needs-based formula calculated according to metrics of: income, productivity, deprivation, skills, and the number of people living in towns. The Stronger Towns Fund prospectus will be published before Summer recess. This will outline the process for how towns can come forward and will set out the process of the £600 million competitive component of the fund. It will also detail the role of local partners, relevant definitions and eligibility criteria.
