Funds to spruce up Southam
HS2 has provided £10,000 to smarten up the Warwickshire town of Southam, to reduce the impact of its construction site at nearby Long Itchington.
The money has paid for native trees in local parks and floral planters.
HS2’s CEF & BLEF funds are still open to applications. To check the eligibility of local projects in your area, go to: https://hs2funds.org.uk/home/ community-environment-fund/.
