The Northwest Regional Strategy

Will become the blueprint for sustainable economic growth in england's northwest

The Regional Strategy for the Northwest provides a unique opportunity to bring together its spatial, economic, social and environmental strategies and build a new long term vision for the region.

Our goal is to produce an agreed strategy for the region which will guide action and investment by Business, National and Local Government and the Voluntary and Community Sectors.

Part 1 sets out the high-level framework and outlines the overarching vision, priorities and action areas for the strategy that will enable Northwest partners to work together to maximise the region’s opportunities and address the challenges over the next twenty years. Draft Part 1 of the Regional Strategy is now available.
