Petition Create a Government manufacturing leadership forum for small and medium firms

Create a dedicated manufacturing leadership forum for small and medium firms so Government can hear directly the voice of manufacturing at this critical time. The request would be for a forum made up of trade associations and manufacturing firms across all regions of the UK.

More details

Small and medium manufacturers are currently facing an unprecedented number of challenges as a result of government policies and legislation:

- Dealing with the logistics and supply chain issues from Brexit
- Staff recruitment
- Transitioning to Net Zero
- Dealing with increasing pace of technology advancement adoption / Industry 4.0
- Access to finance

A manufacturing leadership forum focused on small and medium firms with ministerial support is needed to help firms grow and build back better.
