The Government recognises the valuable role the Coalfields Regeneration Trust plays in supporting former coalfield communities.

In June 2026, the Government confirmed £13.5 million from the Growth Mission Fund, matched by the Trust, to support six new industrial developments in former coalfield areas in England, Scotland and Wales.

The Coalfields Regeneration Trust should continue to work with BIST as these projects are delivered.
