Working for Thames Estuary
Fair Growth the economy, skills and our communities

Purpose

Welcome from Jim Dickson MP

APPG Chair

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the Thames Estuary All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for Fair Growth. Founded in late 2024, the APPG has rapidly established itself as a driving force for taking forward and representing the interests of the greater Thames Estuary.

In short time, thanks to my parliamentary cross-party colleagues, key stakeholders and our invaluable sponsors, we are already engaging in a wide range of priorities and taking forward an exciting agenda for change, development and investment, which aims to improve the Thames Estuary economy, whilst benefitting our communities.

PURPOSE

What is the purpose of the Thames Estuary APPG?

The APPG brings together Thames Estuary MPs and Peers with elected local council leaders, key stakeholders, businesses and employers, as well as other representative organisations' leaders, to give a political voice for policies and development which supports the Thames Estuary economy, its communities and environment, whilst promoting its potential as a place to work, study, live, visit and invest.
