Investment and Fundraising

  • Tweet
Rishi Sunak MP

I was elected on a manifesto to level up communities and unlock their potential. Since being elected in December 2019, I have worked hard with both Government Ministers and our local partners in Wolverhampton to attract vital investment for our community, including the City Council. Below you will find a comprehensive selection of funds that have been secured for our community. While some funds cannot be published due to their commercial sensitivity, I will endeavour to keep updating this webpage as frequently as I can and to include any relevant links so that you can find more information. - Stuart Anderson MP.
