Northampton: Cancer centre among projects in funding bid

Northampton: Cancer centre among projects in funding bid A wellbeing hub, a cancer care centre and an animal welfare unit are among projects in Northampton in line for a share of £63.5m in funding.

West Northamptonshire Council has applied for Levelling Up Funding for the schemes, including a swimming pool, cinema and library in Weston Favell.

In July, it promised £25.1m for the area's revamp if a £20m bid is agreed.

Councillor Dan Lister said all projects created jobs and had a shared approach to "tackling local challenges". BBC Northampton
