Policy, Programmes and Performance has a number of teams who look after a wide range of regeneration policy and funding issues. 

Our key role is to take Government policy and turn it into reality as a programme of actions for Liverpool. 

The Division's key projects include: 

Most importantly, we look after more than £500 million worth of schemes.  We have also helped to attract more than £300 million into the City through the Objective 1 Programme.  

The teams within this division are as follows:


Policy and Development

This team contains a number of smaller sub-teams, each with specific responsibilities: 

  • Enterprise, Economic Development and Information Team who develop new policies to support regeneration in the city.  They collect important facts and figures about Liverpool to help us identify trends, and suggest new ways to make things better.  You can find out more about this data on our Key Statistics & Data page.

  • Environment and Sustainable Neighbourhoods Team  who set the context for sustainable regeneration in Liverpool.  They make sure the best use is made of land available in the city. The team also talks to government about what Liverpool actually needs, and how government policy should perhaps be changed to help cities like ours'.  The team looks after our key sustainability and environmental projects.

  • European Affairs offers support, training and guidance to people who want to apply for funding from the various European pots of cash on offer to the city through Objective One and other funding sources.  They also programme manage successful applications and projects, and lobby European Union institutions including the European Commission and European Parliament on key policy programme issues.

  • New Anfield  oversees regeneration of the Anfield Breckfield area of North Liverpool. In particular, the team co-ordinates the Liverpool Football Club and Liverpool City Council joint working proposals for the historic Stanley Park and surrounding area.
