Areas of Focus

We’ve explored the latest impacts of our targeted funding for under-served places across the UK, what’s working and where there’s room for improvement.

In the fourth year of our Areas of Focus initiative, we examine how our support is benefiting communities and their heritage in our 13 target areas.

We take a look at the progress we’ve made through our Areas of Focus programme three years in, and what we still need to do to meet future goals.

We look at the key learnings and recommendations from the first 24 months of our Areas of Focus initiative.

This Strategic Funding Framework for 2019–2024 sets out our vision and the principles that will guide our National Lottery investment for the next five years.
