Community Regeneration
True regeneration comes from people developing a pride in their community and a commitment to improving their local surroundings and quality of life. Darlington Champions aims to provide funding and support for local community groups who are trying to do just that.
Friends of North Lodge Park
North Lodge Park in Darlington is located right in the town centre and is well used by local residents.
The Friends of North Lodge Park group grew out of a successful Park Watch Scheme and aims to deter anti-social usage of the park through a range of activities and events for the wider community.
| Friends of North Lodge Park were granted £1,000 to increase production and enhance their newsletter, in the hope that this will attract new readers and encourage them to take part in activities within the park. |

"The main benefit of this grant is that it has helped to raise awareness and local pride in our park."
