Introduction


These are critical moments when strategies and projects are created - in the formative stages of the project lifecycle.

Focus has built partnerships, produced professional business plans and secured funding for as many different projects as there are clients - across area regeneration, economic development, business support, technology, arts, sport, heritage, tourism, housing, community regeneration, ICT, training and education.
