LEP Funding

More than 600 more people in the region will be able to sign up to Skills Bootcamps to help fast track them into jobs. An indoor entertainment hub is getting ready to make its official return to Chester after more than a decade's absence.

Cheshire and Warrington Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) has managed to secure £2.4m in government funding – double the previous year’s allocation.

Delighted LEP officials have urged education providers and businesses to come forward to help deliver the bootcamps.
