Our themes
We have different areas of work including nature, transport, rural development and the visitor economy.
A High Productivity Rural, Small Town and City-based Economy
Our High Productivity Rural, Small Town and City-based Economy will leverage the unique character, connectivity, and attractiveness of our historic market towns and city to increase economic activity and investment.
A Green Economy Trailblazer Region
As a Green Economy Trailblazer Region we will unlock significant private sector investment and utilise our high-quality natural environment and future management approach to land and climate resilience to become a national leader in green growth, with initiatives like the Marches Environmental Investment and Innovation Platform.
Healthy and Connected Places
Underpinned through Healthy and Connected Places, we will focus on population health holistically, to promote healthy ageing and preventatively reduce downstream costs of treatment with the support of the Marches Health Fund, as well as enable cross-border connectivity through an integrated approach to transport and digital innovation.
