These empty shops were recently renovated as part of the Pillgwenlly Regeneration Project, a 4-year programme for major regeneration in the Pillgwenlly area through environmental improvements, a business grants scheme, and the creation of a community resource centre. The project has been backed by a £6.7m funding package, including support from Newport City Council, the European Regional Development Fund, Targeted Match Fund and Newport Unlimited. Pillgwenlly is the official name for the area of Newport known in everyday speech as Pill.
