The Ilfracombe Works development team focus on career-based education and support for all ages alongside business and economical development. The team regularly meet with local businesses and through either events or our Annual Business Survey. Through these we can establish the needs of local businesses and help them work towards better, positive outcomes.
There is a great relationship between Ilfracombe Works and the Ilfracombe Academy which allows for educational events and schemes which both teach and encourage Ilfracombe’s next generation.
