Ways to take the Challenge


How to support the Revive & Thrive Challenge

 

“The research I have carried out to be able to consider the Revive and  Thrive Challenge has been really exciting and rewarding.  

As a local authority in a development role you tend to come up with  ideas but wonder if they are worth taking forward; the challenge  however, has enabled me to pound high street to meet the bread and  butter earners of the town, our high street traders and see what they  thought of the challenge.  

It was really rewarding to realise the amount of support for us with  this bid and how they would like to form a task and finish group,  supporting each other and in the long run supporting our Town Team,  getting the engagement and connectivity for the town, it gave me the  positive regard to move forward. 

Thank you for the opportunity to take the challenge”  Michelle Clare, Regeneration Project Manager.  Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council
