The creation of a new centre in Northumberland for advanced manufacturing, the process industry and the engineering sector has moved a step closer, thanks to a multi-million pound investment.

Advance Northumberland, Northumberland County Council and the NELEP have agreed to support investment of £2.7m into Ashwood Business Park in Ashington. Ashwood Business Park is a NELEP Enterprise Zone, meaning that organisations locating there can benefit from 100% enhanced capital allowances. The 62-acre site is at the heart of one of the northeast’s strongest manufacturing clusters.
