Business As Usual...

​Throughout this campaign we have encouraged you to use your vote, and on 23rd June the country did just that, voting to leave the European Union by 51.9% to 48.1% with an astounding 72% turnout.

There may be uncertainty along the way, but this is a process, not an event. We at the Chamber will continue to update this site and provide an impartial and factual narrative throughout this historic transition, but for now, it is business as usual. Read more here...
