About

Welcome to the Sherwood Growth Zone Partnership

The Sherwood Growth Zone stretches from junctions 27 and 28 of the M1, moves east to include the Mansfield and Ashfield conurbation and reaches out into the Newark & Sherwood district at Rainworth.

The Sherwood Growth Zone Partnership is the body in charge of achieving sensitive, well-designed developments that will provide the right kinds of jobs, houses and services in the right locations for people in the surrounding area.

The partnership consists of organisations with a strategic interest in, and statutory responsibility for, the economic development of the zone. These include Ashfield District Council, Mansfield District Council, Newark & Sherwood District Council, West Nottinghamshire College (as a major employer and provider of local employment skills) and Nottinghamshire County Council.
