The purpose of our three Advisory Boards is to support the D2N2 LEP Board in their mission to better push forward on objectives to boost the LEP area’s economic growth. Each Advisory Board will provide regular progress updates to the main D2N2 LEP Board and develop a work programme to drive forward their areas of responsibility.
Decisions on policy and programmes will be made at the Investment Board and D2N2 LEP Board level.
