High streets up and down the country, including Kirklees, were greatly impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and are still feeling the effects today.

The story so far

We are committed to championing our existing town centre businesses and encouraging start-ups. We will encourage a vibrant and creative economy by supporting businesses in the town centre and beyond.

Current and new investors will be able to take advantage of Fibre Nation's investment in full-fibre broadband offering the best possible connectivity.

What's next?

Building resilience in the face of the challenges facing all businesses means having a range of support options available.

You can find out what we can offer in terms of business support and access support on our Business in Kirklees page.

Plans for investment in residential, retail and leisure will also strengthen the current town centre offer - driving footfall and boosting the local economy.
