Working together with partners and local authorities, our mission is to make the East Midlands the best place to live, to work and to learn.
Claire Ward is the first Mayor of the East Midlands. Claire was elected in May 2024, with a plan to deliver more jobs and better skills, build the homes we need, get a grip of our transport systems, back our high streets, work for a greener East Midlands and championing our visitor economy to put our region on the map.
East Midlands Combined County Authority (EMCCA) was formed in March 2024. We’re led by an elected Mayor and cover the four local authority areas of Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Derby and Nottingham.
Our ambition is to harness the potential of our region, by working alongside partners and local authorities to make the East Midlands the best place to live, to work and to learn.
