Drive to promote two districts

9:17am Wednesday 25th April 2012 in Vale of White Horse

A new business brochure and series of town fact-sheets have been published to promote South Oxfordshire and the Vale of White Horse.

The eight-page brochure, produced by South Oxfordshire and Vale of White Horse District Councils, highlights the strengths of the area.

It is hoped the brochure will encourage businesses to relocate and invest in the towns and villages.

The brochure highlights the area’s strengths as a central location, housing world class businesses, with a highly skilled workforce and offering a range of business sites and research facilities.

There are also seven fact-sheets to promote each town in the districts, highlighting key statistics that potential investors need to know before considering the area.

Elaine Ware, cabinet member for economy, leisure and property at the Vale, said: “Southern Oxfordshire is not only a great place to live, but also has a fantastic pedigree when it comes to leading business.

“We hope that more organisations will see the tremendous value that it has to offer and consider moving here.”
