Scarborough Members Invited to LEP Meeting

Members of the Chamber in Scarborough and the surrounding areas are invited to attend a meeting to discuss the future of the Local Enterprise Partnership. The aim of this meeting is to gather views from local businesses about what Scarborough needs to further develop its economy as well as what they consider to be the priorities for the LEP.

The meeting has arisen as a result of concerns that the local business community in Scarborough has been overlooked during the LEP development process and therefore their needs will not be reflected in any bid that is submitted.

It will take place on Wednesday 8th September from 1.30pm at Woodend Creative, Industries Centre, The Crescent, Scarborough, YO11 2PW.
