We’re helping to regenerate buildings, places and open spaces. We’re supporting local people young and old.  We’re encouraging participation through events and activities.  We’re encouraging ideas and supporting those who want North Cleethorpes to evolve.

In memory of Ian Brocklebank who passed away December 2020.

Ian had always been an active community champion supporting causes that he was passionate about. He had been involved with Big Local North Cleethorpes even before it was established and was Vice-Chair of the Committee for many years. Our condolences and best wishes to his family and everyone who knew him. You will be missed Ian and thank you for everything you did.

Station Ramp
