Crosby is situated in the Sefton district. Overall Sefton has been allocated £12.6 million (2001–02: £2.8million, 2002–03: £4.2 million and 2003–04: £5.6 million) of Neighbourhood Renewal Fund (NRF). Sefton is due to receive a further £5.6 million in 2004–05 and £5.6 million in 2005–06.

It is for each local authority to work with their fellow local strategic partnership members to agree exactly how to use NRF in support of the priorities in their local area.
