Grant Helps Communities Get On Track

Coventry has won £360,000 government cash to help the Area Co-ordination Partnership and local communities track progress in improving the quality of life in the city's priority neighbourhoods.

A database will be developed that can be used to improve planning and performance management and offer big improvements to the way local services are delivered.

It will also be a major tool to enable the Partnership to work with local people to attack poverty in the city.

The database will be accessible via internet technology to the twelve organisations in Coventry's Strategic Partnership Group, the City Council and local community groups.

The total cost of the project is £480,000 of which £360,000 is from Government funding.

Cllr Phil Townshend, cabinet member (Service Co-ordination), said:

"I am delighted that we have won this money. It shows the confidence the Government has in our approach in Coventry to work together with local people in addressing the problems that exist in many of our priority neighbourhoods.

"This money will help us to develop a vital tool in our collective attack on poverty in those neighbourhoods."
