I was really pleased to attend the brilliant ‘Durham: Powered by People’ event in Westminster.

Durham County Council, alongside its partners Business Durham; The Local Enterprise Partnership; North East Chamber of Commerce and Durham University amongst others are doing a great job showcasing the advantages of Durham as a place to invest, enjoy the natural environment, attend cultural and social events and have a great quality of life.

It was encouraging to see how well supported this event was, with a number of partners and organisations taking part to outline the advantages of doing business in County Durham. You can find out more about this by visiting the website https://www.durhampoweredbypeople.co.uk/
