The Thriving Neighbourhoods Programme

The Thriving Neighbourhoods Programme (TNP) works with organisations from across local services, schools and businesses, as well as community, voluntary and faith groups. We work together to tackle local problems and deal with issues facing disadvantaged areas and communities in Reading.

The programme splits Reading into four, with a team of Neighbourhood Regeneration Officers, and Community Development Officers co-ordinating the work in each area. In this section you can find out what is happening in each of the areas and how you can join in or get involved.

In North Reading our community development team are actively working in the Amersham Road Estate. South Reading has been divided into North Whitley, Central Whitley and Whitley Wood as this is the largest of the areas. Southcote is where the work in the West is taking place, and Newtown is the focus for the East of Reading.
