More About Herefordshire
Introduction
An introduction to Herefordshire and the opportunities it provides starts with a look at the county's history, current population and communications links, before examining the many ways in which businesses and individuals have taken advantage of this corner of England to carve out success on their own terms. This article will explore the vibrant, diverse and inspiring region of Herefordshire, providing an overview of the key connections that this English county has to business, technology, design, commerce, entrepreneurship and investment.
History of Herefordshire
Herefordshire is situated in the West Midlands region of England. It is bordered by Shropshire to the north, Worcestershire to the east, Gloucestershire to the south, and Wales to the west. The county has an extensive and long history, with many elements still visible today. Archaeological evidence shows that people have been living in the area since Neolithic times, around 6,000 years ago. The Celts were the main ethnic group at the time of the Roman Conquest, and much evidence of Roman occupation remains in the county; most notably, the ruins of a Roman fort in Sutton Walls.
The Anglo-Saxon period that followed saw Hereford become a trading centre due to its position at the confluence of the Rivers Lugg and Wye. In 879, Danish invaders captured the city and made it part of their kingdom. Union with England eventually happened in 924, and the prosperity of the city continued to grow. In the 12th and 13th centuries the Diocese of Hereford was created, and a walled town was built around its perimeter.
As Herefordshire's history is so closely entwined with England's, the county has played its part in national affairs over the centuries. For example, Oliver Cromwell used Hereford as his central base when he invaded Wales in 1645. The city was also used as a powerful military base during World War II, with the RAF personnel based at RAF Kirton-in-Furness protecting the county from invasion.
Population of Herefordshire
Herefordshire is part of the wider West Midlands conurbation and, as of July 2020, is home to an estimated 191,200 people. Just over one third of the county's population (39%) identify as white British, while other ethnic groups make up the remaining 61%. The largest non-white populations consist of Asian British, Other White and Mixed Race individuals, accounting for 17%, 13% and 5% respectively. The local population has an average age of 42.6, with 77.2% aged between 16 and 64 and those aged 65 and over accounting for 13.7%.
Communications Links in Herefordshire
Herefordshire is well connected to the rest of the UK, with several major transport routes passing through the county. The A40 links Herefordshire to Gloucester to the east and Wales to the west, while the M50 provides access to London and the South East. Birmingham International Airport is located just outside the county and provides a fast connection to the capital and beyond. The region is also served by numerous railway stations located on the main London-Birmingham line, as well as a handful of smaller services connecting the county's local towns and villages.
Business & Entrepreneurship in Herefordshire
Herefordshire is home to an array of thriving businesses and a thriving entrepreneurial culture. The county's economy has long been based on traditional rural industries such as farming and food processing, leading to the area benefiting from a strong market for locally produced goods and services. A focus on innovation and infrastructure to support businesses has meant that Herefordshire is also home to a range of companies in the technology, financial services and creative industries.
Examples of leading companies based in Herefordshire include British Gas, who have their training centre there, and Advesta, a forward-thinking digital platform. The Shared Space initiative, a joint venture between the Hereford Enterprise Zone and the University of Herefordshire focusing on connecting businesses to local talent and industry, has been a successful hub for local entrepreneurs, providing guidance and support for start-ups.
The Herefordshire Food & Drink network has also been an important part of the county's economy since its establishment in 2013. The network provides a platform for local food and drink businesses to connect with one another and share best practice. The recent funding boost from the Government which has seen the trend of 'foodie towns' gaining ground throughout Herefordshire has also added to the county's prospects, making it a go-to destination for food lovers.
The area's many advantages — strong transport links, a skilled workforce, an excellent business infrastructure and a picture-perfect rural backdrop — make it ideal for companies seeking an office base or manufacturing facility. Herefordshire is becoming a hub for technology companies such as Audition Technology, a multi-disciplinary software house specialising in virtual reality, gaming and digital media; English Electric, a start-up manufacturing electric cars; and OWI, a specialist in outdoor design and technology.
Design in Herefordshire
Herefordshire is firmly established as a centre for design, creativity and innovation. Local designers are working to turn their ideas into reality with a little help from the county's growing network of creative hubs, accelerators and co-working spaces.
The Hereford Creative Network (HCN) is a non-profit that seeks to bring together individuals, businesses and organisations in the creative industry to form collaborations and generate positive change in the area. The county is home to the well-established Herefordshire School of Art and Design, along with a number of other design schools and sixth form colleges teaching the skills needed for a career in graphic, web and product design.
There are numerous creative companies and businesses in the county too, with businesses such as Atomik Creative providing branding, web design and digital marketing services to local businesses. Local designers and makers frequently come together to share ideas and showcase their work at the monthly Haywood Market, which has attracted the attention of a wider audience.
Commerce & Investment in Herefordshire
Commerce and investment are two important elements of the Herefordshire economy. The UK is the sixth largest economy in the world and Herefordshire, taking advantage of its location in the West Midlands region, has established itself as one of the prime locations for companies looking to develop their operations throughout the country.
The Herefordshire Investment and Business Initiative (HIBi) has been successfully working since 2008 to attract inward investment and develop locally based businesses. HIBi provides an array of services to local companies, ranging from investment advice to grant funding, legal and marketing support.
The county acts as a gateway to Wales and a transit route for goods to the Midlands and South West England, connecting Herefordshire to a highly developed delivery network and providing a secure route for goods to and from the UK. This makes Herefordshire an ideal base for traders, with warehouse space, transport links and a large base of skilled workers all readily available.
