The National Lottery Heritage Fund will support the Dynamic Understanding of the Natural Environment (DUNE) project to protect the fragile coastline.
Key points:
- The latest £250,000 grant will be used to protect the Cleethorpes coastline
- A total of £10m has now been utilised by the North East Lincolnshire Council for different projects
- Other projects include creating youth centres in Grimsby and supporting the LGBTQ+ community
North East Lincolnshire Council has celebrated a £10m ($12.3m) milestone after the latest £250,000 grant was approved.
This will go towards the Dynamic Understanding of the Natural Environment (DUNE) project, which will fund research into protecting the Cleethorpes coastline and the Humber Estuary.
This area has several nature conservation areas, including a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
Since 2019, the area has seen over 30 heritage-led regeneration projects, each of them supporting a different aspect of the community.
Helen Featherstone, Director of England, North at The National Lottery Heritage Fund, said: “We know that when our investments contribute to the long-term vision for a place, the benefits can be profound and long-lasting for its local community, visitors, and economy.”
"So, it is wonderful news that thanks to National Lottery players, the Heritage Fund’s support in the DUNE project has taken our total investment across North East Lincolnshire since 2019 to an impressive £10m.
"Working with North East Lincolnshire Council has allowed us to understand the long-term heritage ambitions of the areas. North East Lincolnshire remains a priority for the Heritage Fund through our initiative, Heritage Places; a 10-year programme to continue to support the heritage aspirations of the area, which leave a legacy for all to enjoy.”
Good to know: The Humber Estuary is the second-largest coastal plain estuary in the UK and drains a catchment area of around 20% of England's land surface area
Other projects in this area have included a £2.7m Grimsby Youth Zone, which was used to refurbish buildings to welcome 5,000 young people, a £3.5m project to restore three historic buildings on the Weelsby Hall estate and £9,999 to support young people from under-served backgrounds.
Just before Christmas, the National Lottery Heritage Fund allocated just over £1m to preserve historic places of worship, including two churches which housed rare Lewis and Company pipe organs.
