Ribble Valley Labour Party Prospective Parliamentary Candidate David Hinder has called for increased government supportfor rural businesses as part of afar reaching strategy to promote rural economic growth.


Speakingaftervisitingaward- winning Downham-based Bowland Bioenergy Limited, Mr Hinder said: “Rural areas such as the Ribble Valley have more businesses per head of population than towns and cities, yet continue to face higher transport costs and soaring energybills. “Bowland Bioenergy has

is also an integral part of the process.” Mr Hinder continued:


“However, even successful ru­ ral businesses are challenged by government regulations re­ garded as overly complex and bureaucratic. Small and me­ dium rural businesses should have their business rates and energybills frozen and powers should be devolved to county regions, not just the cities. “My continuing dialogue


with the Countryside Alliance has reinforced Ribble Valley


Labour Party’s commitment to keeping rural communities together by improving rural transport, expanding high speed rural broadband and promoting the development of affordable homes. “l will continue to work


with my colleagues for the reduction of red tape that is holding back rural business


growth.” Mr Hinder is standing as


the Labour Party candidate for Ribble Valley in the Gen­ eral Election on May 7th.


to help rural enterprise


Ru r a l b u s i n e s s e s in Lancashire will benefit from . £4.6m to support employment and growth. The funding will be availa­


ble for eligible rural business­ es located across Lancashire and in neighbouring parts of Greater Manchester. It will help farmers who are seeking to invest in new technologies, diversify or make onsite im­


provements. Funding willalso be available for new or exist­


ing small or micro enterprises looking to createjob opportu­ nities.


This programme will be


managed and delivered by Lancashire County Council


and is expected to be launched in June 2015. Projects fundedTn the


2009-2613 Rural Programme include Fiddlers Lancashire Crisps, who benefitted from funding to create a manufac­ turing facility at their family farm,and theOddChairCom- pany, who needed additional space to expand their busi­ ness. The funding will be giv­


en out through local bod­ ies, known as Local Action Groups, including Lancashire North and Bowland, which covers part of Wyre, Lancas­ ter, Ribble Valley and Pendle. Each of these groups is made


up of representatives fromthe public, private and voluntary sectors who have spent the last year identifying local pri­ ority areas for funding. , The programme will ini­


tially focus on farming and enterprise, and later thisyear will look to support forestry, tourism, culture & heritage* and community projects. You
