Tyfu Cymru Project Update

Tyfu Cymru has now delivered over 1,262 training days with over 3,000 participants in training from across Wales. As a project team, we are delighted to have been able to have established 35 networks, and to have assisted 399 enterprises. 90% rated the various training provisions as good or excellent, and 70% said they had developed new technical horticulture skills.

Based on data collected from participants, we estimate a growth in employees of 8.5 and net growth in turnover of £3.2m as a result of the project, equating to a return of £2.25 for every £1 spent.
