Here at the Durham County Council Our Big Econversation this morning to hear about the Inclusive Economic Strategy. As a small business creating jobs it’s important to us to understand if we should stay here in Durham for our future growth.

Really interesting listening to panelist at #bigecon around the nostalgia or County Durham and the importance of supporting local talent through education opportunities. I do think Durham really could thrive between nostalgia & independent brands

I had free higher and degree education between 2000 and 2007 so it’s really interesting to see the gap that has developed in accessing education between that time and now. Many initiatives have tried to fill the gap but has anything done as much as funded degrees? #bigecon

Lots on opportunities and specifically exploiting opportunities. Something in the retail sector that I really think #durham has missed - we should be up there with York as a tourist destination. #bigecon

Amazing morning at East Rainton CC with Womens and junior cricket on. Everyone excited for Mark Wood arriving to officially open the new pavilion - thank you for supporting your local north east clubs! 🏏

Really good win for East Rainton CC today - last few games I’ve seen not changing the death bowlers has cost them but a great well timed decision today got them a comfortable total they knew the batters could reach before the rain arrived
