Paul Hamer, Chief Executive Officer of WYG Group has been appointed as board member to the Leeds City Region Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP).
The Leeds City Region (LCR) Partnership brings together a group of 11 local authorities (Barnsley, Bradford, Calderdale, Craven, Harrogate, Kirklees, Leeds, Selby, Wakefield and York, along with North Yorkshire County Council) with businesses and partners to support economic growth and a better quality of life for the communities.
The LEP Chair intends to bring together Board Members as soon as possible to begin discussing the key issues facing the partnership, which will be set up formally from April 2011. In the meantime the Partnership will continue to support businesses by coordinating bids to the Regional Growth Fund (RGF).
