Description
"The West Midlands is still Britain's industrial heartland. One in five jobs in the region is in manufacturing and most of those are in small to medium sized firms, like the two we visited for... this week's programme. Manufacturing has been hit very hard in this recession and as a consequence the unemployment rate in the West Midlands, is rising faster than anywhere else in the UK."
