Tuesday 8th July 2008 – Thursday 10th July 2008
Yorkshire Forward is responsible for the delivery of the socio-economic elements of the Rural Development Programme for England (RDPE) in the Yorkshire and Humber region. They were due to be holding a workshop on Wednesday 9th July on opportunities available to members of the upland livestock sector through the RDPE. However due to low numbers the workshop has been cancelled. Yorkshire Forward’s rural business advisors will still be on stand 616 (avenue E) at the Show and are happy to explain how you can access Rural Development Programme for England support through a range of different programmes in the Yorkshire and Humber region.
