Strategies and plans

Places with a clear economic plan are more likely to make the most of their assets and realise their potential. The plan should include a timetable for investment and show how activities align with local, regional and national policy.

My expertise includes:

• policy and literature reviews

• baseline assessments

• options appraisals

• thematic development and integration

• project development

• outline costing

• funding sources and programme delivery. 

I've also managed rural development programmes, so understand the daily challenges that rural communities, businesses and organisations face. As a result, I'm aware of both the policy and delivery context and how best to develop medium to long-term strategies and delivery plans.
