Local Environment Economic Development (LEED) Toolkit – Phase 3

This project involved supporting Natural England with the delivery of four LEED Level 1 workshops (Heart of the South West, Oxfordshire, Black Country and D2N2) and one LEED Level 2 report/workshop Gloucestershire). The project team provided the role of Defra Network representative, facilitator and consultant, working closely with the LEPs and LNPs in the different areas, as well as Natural England and other Defra agencies. An important part of the work was in-depth familiarisation with the LEED toolkit process and elements. After the project, the team contributed to the training of others (LEP and Defra network representatives) at three events around the country.
