The latest unemployment figures released today show that unemployment in Morecambe and Lunesdale is continuing to fall. Unemployment in May 2015 is down 22% on May 2014 and down 28% from May 2010.
Speaking after the announcement David Morris MP said:
‘It is fantastic that the long term economic plan is working in Morecambe and Lunesdale. The number of people who are unemployed is continuing to fall and it is in part due to the hard work of the staff at Morecambe Job Centre who work with employers and assist people back into work, who I meet regularly with. The more people in gainful employment the more investment there will be in an area and with that comes a real chance of regeneration.’
