Croydon is often overlooked, but that's changing.

Backed by significant investment, the borough is becoming a more connected, economically active and culturally vibrant part of London.

Croydon's Mayor, Jason Perry, previously outlined plans in the borough's Growth Plan - including exciting things like:

  • £30 million investment for town centre regeneration.
  • 14,500 new homes in the Croydon Opportunity Area.
  • £265 million economic contribution from Gatwick Airport.
  • A growing creative and digital economy, with more creative businesses per capita than Manchester or Leeds.
