Great to chat with @Chris_Boardman, National @activetraveleng Commissioner, and fellow #Olympic gold medallist 🚴‍♂️

We spoke about the future of active travel and where we go next.

What changes would you like to see for walking, wheeling & cycling across our region?👇

Recently, I had the privilege of touring @WilberforceSFC📖

It was important to take time to listen, hearing from staff about the opportunities available.

The insight I’ve taken away will help shape the work my team and I focus on, making sure we’re backing young people.

Small businesses are vital to our local economy🚀

During @BizWeekHumber, @HEY_Growth is hosting an event to help businesses recruit apprentices and tap into local talent, in partnership with @hhchamber.

Visited @NorthernFilmsTV yesterday. Not London, not Manchester, right here in #Hull.

Full sets, cutting-edge tech, they're building one of the UK's most impressive film studios.

Our region has everything it needs to become a serious player in the creative industries📽️

Pleased to see up to £30M supporting #Hull, #EastYorkshire & #Teesside projects to deliver clean, secure energy.

Working in partnership with @BenHouchen, this will create jobs, drive growth & innovation.

£21 million in new funding is to transform underused brownfield sites across our region, driving regeneration and revitalising communities.

This investment will create vibrant places to live and work, generate jobs, and strengthen the local economy.

As our energy system evolves, we need to make sure it works for local people too, supporting industry, protecting jobs, and helping people develop the skills they need.

[Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority @weareheyca]

Yesterday I met members of @humber_energy to discuss the role our region will play in the UK’s future #EnergySecurity.

The #Humber already powers much of the country, and we can build on that while cutting emissions, creating local jobs and helping bring down energy bills.

[Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority @weareheyca]

This region produces around 20% of the UK’s power, is home to around a third of the UK’s offshore wind capacity, and has hydrogen storage that could power 2 million homes for a year.

Great to attend the Youth Action Showcase at @BishopBurton last week, opening the event and meeting students.

The project sees them supporting their community while building valuable skills.

It's important young people build careers and futures here in #Hull & #EastYorkshire.

[Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority @weareheyca]

This extra support will help more people overcome barriers to work and take steps towards secure employment.

[Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority @weareheyca]

I’m really pleased that £11.7 million of new funding through the Connect to Work scheme is coming to our region, helping thousands of disabled people and people with health conditions move towards secure, good jobs.

[Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority @weareheyca]

Alongside this, £200,000 from the Mayoral Investment Fund has been committed to help cover transport costs for people who secure employment through the programme.
