Paul Lowndes at the event commented; “I have great confidence in the future of Somerset, and the Great South West as a wider region. There’s a magnet effect of having Hinkley Point C and Gravity and everything that Somerset has done to bring those two huge projects here. We have more attention within the greater South West than we’ve ever had before. There is huge support for those two projects”
