In July 2021 the Mayor announced the first round of exemplar projects for the High 
Streets For All Challenge. 34 exemplar projects have been allocated funding of £20,000 each, to address issues such as bringing vacant buildings into use, protecting cultural spaces and supporting employment on the high street.

  • Bexley
  • Bexleyheath Town Centre
  • Bexleyheath Business Partnership Ltd
  • Developing a strategy to promote a 24-hour economy on the high street and to support the animation of outdoor space with cultural and other events.

Award of £20,000

Followed by:

  • Bexleyheath
  • Bexley
  • London Borough of Bexley

The project will develop a high street strategy and delivery plan with a focus on young 
people and intergenerational relationships as well as street markets and the evening 
economy. Pilot activities will include testing uses of the public realm, with the creation 
of a Youth Board to inform decision-making and co-design alongside the partnership.

Award of £160,000
