Aston Pride is one of the second round of New Deal for Communities ( NDC) Partnerships and has a grant of £54 million over 10 years (2001 to 2011).

Aston Pride, together with Aston Library,
are located in Aston Council house;
an impressive Victorian building in the heart of Aston.

 

The NDC programme is innovative in providing grant funding over a long period - enabling local partnerships to deliver outcomes that make a real difference in their neighbourhoods. In this sense, the NDC programme is a radical departure from previous regeneration programmes.

All the NDC partnerships including Aston Pride are tackling six key themes – poor job prospects; high levels of crime; educational underachievement; poor health and problems with housing and the physical environment and community involvement through the Community Leadership theme.

The Vision for Aston Pride

“The Partnership will build upon the strengths of the Aston Family to celebrate the area’s diversity.  The programme will secure a prosperous, stable and healthy Aston, and create a culture of learning and self-help. The community will benefit from quality local services, housing choice and a safe, attractive environment”.
