Town Centre Revitalisation Fund pdf icon PDF 248 KB

    In July 2015 the Leader of the Council announced an annual £1m fund, allocated in the Medium Term Financial Plan (MTFP). This fund is to support investment in Surrey’s secondary shopping centres with the aim of promoting economic prosperity as well as improving the health and well being of our residents and communities by providing better facilities and an improved retail offer. This is split between two funds, the Town Centre Revitalisation Fund (TCRF) and the Local Centre Improvement Fund
