Our Economic Development team is shaped around our priorities that are defined by the Economic Growth Strategy 2025-2035. The team is largely funded by grants from the West of England Combined Authority (WECA) using both government and regional funding sources such as the UK shared prosperity fund (UKSPF) and the WECA investment fund.
