She said she hopes Lewes District Council will be able to use this funding to continue the regeneration of Newhaven, that is already seeing millions of pounds of government funding being pumped in to boost the local economy and regenerate the town.

The government’s £4.8billion Levelling Up Fund which was announced at the Spending Review, will invest in local infrastructure that has a visible impact on people and their communities.
It will run from 2021/22 to 2024/25, and drive regeneration in places in need, those facing particular challenges, and areas that have received less government investment in recent years.
