Ramsgate's Plan for Neighbourhoods

The government has chosen Ramsgate to receive up to £20 million in funding and support over the next decade, as part of its ‘Plan for Neighbourhoods’ programme. The funding is for the whole area of Ramsgate, and covers the period 2026 to 2036. The funding will be used to help deal with some of the issues that matter most to local people.

A new Ramsgate Neighbourhood Board has been set up to lead this initiative. The aim is to give local people the power to address local issues and regenerate the town.

The Board will work alongside Thanet District Council to produce a 10-year vision and plan for Ramsgate. The plan will outline what projects and activities will be done to achieve the programme’s three key objectives:

• Creating thriving places
• Building stronger communities
• Taking back control

Undertaking meaningful engagement with the local community is a central pillar of the Plan for Neighbourhoods. Building trust and empowering the local community requires consistency, dedication and time, and evidence that people’s priorities have been acted upon.

The Board will engage with communities in Ramsgate to shape the vision and plan, which must be submitted to government for consideration by the end of November 2025.

The government has published an official guide, called the ‘Plan for Neighbourhoods: Prospectus‘, to explain how it all works.
