Active Belfast – Move Well & Eat Well to Feel Better – Phase 2

In 2023 the Active Belfast Partnership took forward the first Participatory Budgeting (PB) pilot exercise in Belfast. Phase 2 of the pilot PB exercise commenced February 2024. Local groups were given the chance to apply for a share of the PB funding to deliver projects they thought would benefit local people in their area. Groups could apply for funding up to £2,500 and residents voted online

Groups across the city submitted project ideas and in February 2024 residents across the city had their chance to vote for the projects they’d like to see delivered in their areas via on-line voting.

The successful projects had 6 months to deliver their projects from May to October 2024.

A celebration event took place on Tuesday 5 November in Belfast City Hall, where successful projects were showcased through post er displays. Click here to view the posters.
