Business Advisory Group

The Business Advisory Group is a working group within the Forum which was created to provide private sector advice, comment, ideas and recommendations to the Forum on business issues affecting the economic development and regeneration of Hull.

It is made up of members of the Business Forum who meet regularly to look in detail at the issues facing the city and its businesses. The main issues covered recently included Hull Forward and the physical regeneration projects in the City Centre, the new Local Area Agreement, the Employment Land Review, the restructuring of Business Link and business support provision, the Council’s agenda for supporting small businesses, Hull’s tourism strategy, Hull’s allocation of Working Neighbourhoods Fund and the developments in the Council’s planning system. 

It is currently chaired by Barry Schofield of Tuttys Office Interiors. If you are a local business and would like to join the Group please get in touch with Ben Delaney. 

Minutes and agendas from previous meetings are available to view in the 'Downloads' page.
