It will also tackle deep-rooted unemployment, by providing intensive support to over 1,500 young people helping them back into employment, and support small businesses so that the region’s economy is open for business.

In total, £34 million of local and national public sector investment will be provided. This will lever in £262 million of private sector investment over the long term.
