I have been promoting our local economy in our area, from meeting and speaking to local business owners, to hosting an online jobs and careers fair, and calling on further support for hospitality businesses in the constituency of Louth & Horncastle.
Louth is home to so many wonderful independent businesses who contribute to the charming character of our town. I popped in to see a number of our fantastic shop owners at the weekend to discuss how to best support them as we recover from the pandemic and #ShopLocal.
I had a wonderful visit to the Playhouse Cinema in Louth recently where I met manager James Pickworth to discuss their recent reopening and preparations for the cinema’s 100th birthday later this year!
It was a pleasure to visit Tattershall Lakes Country Park this weekend to speak to Eleanor Nash, Deputy General Manager and the senior management team during #EnglishTourismWeek.
It is great news that many local organisations in the constituency of Louth & Horncastle have received Government investment through the second round of the Culture Recovery Fund!
I am delighted that East Lindsey is set to receive £226,238 of Government funding as part of the new Welcome Back Fund. This investment will help our market towns reopen, support our coastal communities and safely welcome shoppers and holiday makers in the coming months.
