Thirty-three housing associations, local authorities and other providers are set to deliver around 600 new traveller pitches, after the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) named successful organisations for Traveller Pitch Funding. A total of £47m funding will be allocated to 71 projects around the country, and will support the provision of new traveller sites and new pitches on existing sites, as well as the improvement of existing pitches. A further £13m remains available from the Traveller Pitch Funding Programme for additional allocations where schemes are progressed and are able to deliver, and provide good value for money. These will be operated on a rolling basis under which offers will be considered for their value for money, deliverability and meeting local need, as they are developed. Interested providers should contact their local HCA area office to discu
ss their proposals. Read more on the HCA website.
