Erewash Sound presenter joins £20m funding board

A volunteer presenter at Erewash Sound will help decide how £20m of community funding is spent locally.

Richard Dawson has been appointed to the Cotmanhay Neighbourhood Board, which will oversee distribution of Government regeneration funding across the area over the next decade. He will represent cultural, arts, heritage and sporting organisations as part of the group.

The board will decide how the Pride in Place funding is allocated, following engagement with residents and local organisations.
