People in the north have said the Government's levelling up programme just highlights how inequality exists between the regions.
The programme introduced by the Conservative government in it's 2019 manifesto looked to reduce the economic imbalances between areas and social groups. But a recent YouGov survey revealed 74% of people don't actually understand what levelling up is - including one in four people who have ever even heard of it.
The North in Numbers podcast tells the human stories behind various statistics for the north of England with the latest episode getting to the bottom of levelling up and what it means for the people working in some of the Government's strategy targets.
