Paul! Try reading what I write.
A funding would be to employ people for a salary. If the Western Heights had their own paid workers, it would work out cheaper, say £10 an hour or so for each one.
If you get a private company to do painting or gardening, or restructuring, they'll charge you much more than that!
The idea would be, to assess how much time is needed to get the repairs done. Employ the number of workers required for that period of time, on a work contract, with the possibility of extending the contract, with relevant funding, should this be required.
I take it you need gardening, painting and some structural work carried out. If it is something that requires a few years, as Phil implied above, considering the 50 years of previous neglect, then a contract for your own workers, paid for by funding, would be just the right thing.
If this is not good enough, then nothing ever will be, mate
