The Building Better Opportunities (BBO) Programme is now closed. The National Lottery Community Fund matched funds from the European Social Fund (ESF) 2014 to 2020 to invest in local projects tackling the root causes of poverty, promoting social inclusion and driving local jobs and growth.
The funding was delivered in 38 Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) areas according to local priorities, which were set by the LEPs themselves. It supported a variety of projects, ranging from those improving employability for the most disadvantaged, helping those with multiple and complex needs, to improving financial literacy.
The amount of funding varied across different areas as LEPs and the LEP area European Structural Investment Fund (ESIF) Sub Committees decided how much of their ESF allocation to devote to this strand of work.
