Has Tenbury seen the last of AWM funding

Speculation seems to be in the air that Advantage West Midlands is likely to be axed by Eric Pickles MP the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government.

The Tenbury Area Partnership who have been working on plans for the building of a Health & Well Being Multi use facility on the Palmers Meadow Car Park, were relying on the majority of the funding to come from AWM.

It is unclear at this stage whether any of the annual £200 million pound budget controlled by AWM will transfer to the West Midland local authorities, or whether is will be greatly reduced or cut altogether as part of the Governments economy drive.
