Eleanor shares her thoughts on how devolution could benefit Cheshire and Warrington.

‍

What could devolution mean for Cheshire and Warrington’s future?

“From my perspective, devolution means bringing decision making, power and funding nearer to home, so that it's local people – not those in London – making decisions about our future.

‍

How can devolution support Cheshire and Warrington’s visitor economy?

“Specifically for Marketing Cheshire, devolution means that we'll be better able to better promote the Cheshire brand. The visitor economy in Cheshire is already worth £3.9billion, and with the right support and investment, is ripe for growth.

‍

What do you think the benefits are of having an elected Mayor for the area?

“Devolution brings with it an elected Mayor who will lead for our whole area – and who can be a flag waver for us, promoting the Cheshire brand on the national stage. This means that Cheshire and Warrington will get the recognition it deserves, alongside Manchester, Liverpool and other great places.”
