Coast to Capital
Coast to Capital LEP is one of 39 partnerships established across the UK by Government to determine
regional economic priorities. Our role is to help re-balance the economy and to promote private sector
growth. We take a strategic lead in ensuring that the infrastructure and conditions for economic growth
are in place across our diverse region, which includes both urban and rural places in West Sussex,
Brighton and Hove, Lewes, Croydon, Gatwick Diamond and East Surrey.
Our focus is on those areas where we can stimulate growth and add the most value, working with the
private and public sectors. This includes the facilitation of the Government's Growing Places Fund and
the European Structural and Investment Fund. We also identify priorities for improving local transport,
housing and skills. Coast to Capital is led by the business community and supported by our region's local
authorities, businesses and academic institutions. In partnership, we are collaborating to secure a more
prosperous and sustainable future for all. Our primary goal is to create private sector employment growth
of 100,000 jobs over the 25 years to 2035.
