<p>The Enterprise M3 Local Enterprise Partnership, which covers Surrey, received £219
million through the local growth fund to drive regional development. Since 2018, the
LEP has invested over half a million pounds to support the enhancement and refurbishment
of Further Education colleges in Surrey. This investment is increasing the number
of available apprenticeships in the sectors important to Surrey, providing local businesses
with a workforce equipped with the right skills, whatever the specialism.</p><p>The
Government understands that regions across the UK have different skills needs, so
we will build on local strengths to deliver opportunities for people wherever they
live. One way we will achieve this in Surrey is through the Enterprise M3 Skills Advisory
Panel which bring together local employers and skills providers to pool knowledge
on skills and labour market needs and work together to understand and address key
local challenges.</p><p>Furthermore, business support for Surrey's small enterprises
is available through the LEP's Growth Hub. The Growth Hub provides a free, impartial,
‘single point of contact’ to help businesses in the area identify and access the right
support for them at the right time no matter their size or sector.</p>
