Supporting our local businesses, community groups, and building up our high street

As your MP I am always keen to support local businesses and community groups. One of my priorities over the next five years is to build up our local area and high street, and so far we have secured £30 million from the Government's Towns Fund and High Streets Fund to do so. Money is being invested in a new Business and Innovation Hub, green spaces, and renewable energy sources among many other plans.
