With local elections coming up, GrowBiz is bringing together a panel of local candidates to ask them: 

• If they are elected, how will they support the local economy?

• And how can they make a difference to the rural businesses and social enterprises?

And we'll also be prompting you to think:

• Are you making the most of your local Councillor as a resource?

• How does your vote make a difference?

• What should you realistically expect from local authorities and their elected members?

  We're excited to bring you this unique event and are looking forward to a lively discussion. The session will be hosted by our CEO Jackie Brierton MBE.
