Situation and Transport
Coventry is situated in the very heart of modern Britain, being approximately 95 miles north of London and 19 miles east of Britain’s second city, Birmingham. It has excellent road and rail links with London, Birmingham and all other major cities. There are good motorway links and the city is a major hub for National Express Coaches. Coventry Airport is sited south, southeast of the city.
Trade and Cultural Links
Coventry is twinned with 28 European cities, the most famous being Dresden in Germany and Stalingrad (Volograd) in Russia. All these factors make it a pivotal point for trade and commerce of types.
Surrounding Districts
Creation and expansion areas in around Coventry include Stoke Heath, Canley, Cheylesmore, Coundon and Radford. This development was due in the main to the booming car manufacture business for which Coventry was once famous. In the ‘50’s and ‘60’s Coventry enjoyed the highest standard of living in the country but sadly this was followed by a very lean time during the following two decades when Britain’s motorcar manufacture went into a decline.
Regeneration
However the city is now regenerating as a new centre for business enterprise and trade, building on its excellent central position, trade links and the readily available pool of skilled and semi-skilled labour. Coventry is home to one of the largest and most successful Mutual Building Societies – the Coventry. Small businesses reliant on engineering expertise are starting to flourish. The Coventry and Warwick (C&W) Convention Bureau provides a team of professionals who are dedicated to conference and event management. Venues include the Ricoh Arena and Nailcote Hall. Excellent hotel abound in both city centre and its environs, catering for the wide range of visitors to the City.
Education
Education facilities are of a high standard, culminating in two excellent Universities, Coventry University and the University of Warwick. Possibly one of its most famous beneficiaries of a Coventry education was the late Mo Mowlem, Labour cabinet minister, broker of the Good Friday Peace agreement in N Ireland.
Events
Tourism and entertainment are actively promoted. These range from cultural and musical activities, many of which are based around the magnificent modern cathedral, and the Belgrade Theatre. Festivals abound including the Jazz Festival and the 3-day Godiva Festival which takes place in early July attracting headline popular musical acts to over 90,000 visitors.
