Shopfront Improvement Grants

Grants of up to £20,000 have helped transform the look of shopfronts across Clacton, Holland-on-Sea and Jaywick Sands.

These include everything from new signs and improved access points to upgraded lighting and more.

Due to incredibly high take-up in Clacton and Holland-on-Sea, applications from these areas have been paused.

However, Jaywick Sands businesses are welcome to apply, and we are able to support businesses through the process to give them the best chance of success! Full guidance for the shopfront improvement grant scheme can be found here.

You can make an application here.

Community Regeneration Partnership

The Community Regeneration Partnership (formerly the Levelling Up Partnership) was awarded £20million in funding from what is now the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government.

Projects were identified by civil servants as part of a deep-dive in January 2024, based on strategic planning such as the Love Clacton vision and Jaywick Place Plan.

The aim is to provide place-based regeneration in Clacton and Jaywick Sands.

A number of these projects are being led by Essex County Council.
