Core Cities UK is politically led by the elected leaders and mayors of our ten cities. Each of our cities has responsibility for a portfolio area, these are:

  • Birmingham - Industrial Strategy
  • Bristol - Low Carbon
  • Cardiff - Culture
  • Glasgow - Smart Cities
  • Leeds - Public Sector Reform/Inclusive Growth
  • Liverpool - Housing
  • Manchester - Brexit/International
  • Newcastle - Transport
  • Nottingham - Finance
  • Sheffield - Skills

City Chief Executives along with our Policy Advisor's Group also meet regularly to guide this work.
