HOLYHEAD TOWNSCAPE HERITAGE INITIATIVE (THI) 

The Holyhead Townscape Heritage Initiative (THI) is a heritage regeneration programme which is part-funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) across the UK. Anglesey County Council has secured £1m from the HLF towards a THI in Holyhead Town Centre, and has secured matching resources of some £2m to create a funding package totalling some £3m. The matching funds include contributions from ERDF, Welsh Assembly, Anglesey County Council, and Cadw.

The Holyhead THI includes the following components:-

-       Grants for historic building improvements

-       Funds for urban realm heritage improvements

-       Education, training, publicity and interpretation

-       Project officer employment and other running costs.

 The project officer started in post full-time in October 2010, and will be based with the Council's Built Environment Section in Llangefni ,but will have an outreach office in Holyhead.
