South Lakeland District Council
Key Competitive Attractions
Adjacent to the spectacular Yorkshire Dales National Parks and the Lake District, it is no wonder this is recognised as being one of the country’s finest areas for quality of life; Wordsworth himself called it ‘The loveliest spot that man hath ever found.’
The area hosts a skilled and adaptable workforce as a result of the traditional manufacturing sector and the creation of a resident engineering and technological base.
We provide funding advice and support to businesses, through partnership with development agencies, and can help with business sites and premises, and training facilities and opportunities.
Attractive employment sites and premises include impressively-designed workspace and business units situated in the National Parks, and capable of accommodating all business needs, whether a start-up or expanding business.
