The Local Action Group is the driving force behind the design and implementation of our LEADER Local Development Strategy and has been brought together through the consultation process to reflect the main priorities of our programme.
The group includes representatives from the public sector, private sector and community groups as well as farming and forestry with the enthusiasm, knowledge and capacity to develop into an effective delivery body.
In addition we have drawn upon the support of established Local Action Groups in neighbouring areas and on the Greater Cambridge and Greater Peterborough Enterprise Partnership to ensure successful programme delivery between now and 2020.
