CTaylor added; this plan has a lot of ambition, it is evidence based, gathered through recent economic profile. Focused over 6 themes, each addressing an area highlighted by that evidence.  Lots of robust business partnerships and the pooling their resources alongside our own to help our economy recover from the pandemic.  Aim is to make sure benefits can be felt to our economy across the board and by everybody.  Being overseen by a board, currently pulling together action plans under each theme to present to that board delivery within the next 12 months.

Cllr Williams commented that pre-COVID our town centres were changing and the pandemic has accelerated that change; anything we can do to help that recovery is commendable.
