Working Neighbourhoods Fund

The Working Neighbourhoods Fund (WNF) is a dedicated fund for local councils and communities to develop more concentrated, concerted, community-led approaches to getting people in the most deprived areas of England back to work. It replaces the Neighbourhood Renewal Fund (NRF) and incorporates the Department of Work and Pensions Deprived Areas Fund (DAF).

2009-10 Working Neighbourhood Fund allocations were announced on 4 February 2009 as part of the Area Based Grant. These figures are published in the Area Based Grant tables on this site (see link on the right).
