Activities
2024
For the Cymru Wledig LPIP (Local Policy and Innovation Partnership) for Rural Wales project, data were gathered, analysed, and a report compiled, focusing on the concept of economic growth in rural areas. Interviews were conducted, and questionnaires were distributed to various independent retail and service businesses, including butchers, hairdressers, cafes, and estate agents in Llangefni. The data were then analysed, and a summary report was prepared.
