Representation

NECC is here to give members a voice in decisions taken at local, national and regional level. To do this NECC lobbies and campaigns on behalf of members across a wide range of policy areas from transport through to skills issues seeking better conditions for business.

Every campaign that NECC launches is guided by the determination to improve business conditions for members whether that be improving signage in Northumberland or seeking infrastructure improvements in Tees Valley.

A successful campaign is dependent upon our members contributing their fears and concerns and their knowledge to allow for a strong message to be taken to local, regional and national policy-makers.

Testimonial

“As an individual business trying to expand the airport I think the main frustration has been the length of time it’s taken for us to get the planning permission through, but we are confident that with the added pressure of NECC that we will get planning permission given to us hopefully in the next couple of months.  We are very grateful to NECC for all the support it has given us.”  Richard Whitehouse, Durham Tees Valley Airport
