South Lakeland Strategic Partnership
South Lakeland Strategic Partnership (SLSP) brings together
key public, private, voluntary and community sector organisations
at a local level. Such Partnerships are seen by the
Government as a way of ensuring that local services are delivered
in the most effective way for local people. They are seen as
fundamental to tackling key issues for local people such as
transport, jobs, education, health and housing. Solutions to
these issues require a range of organisations working together to
meet jointly agreed priorities.
The Partnership has 18 full members and co-optee
members. Mrs Mandy Dixon is the current Chair of the
LSP. The Partnership has established a number of Thematic
Task Groups to deliver the Sustainable Community Strategy and these
are:
1 Housing to Meet Local Need
2 Jobs, Skills & Regeneration
3 Health & Well Being
4 Accessible Service
5 A Quality Environment
6 Children & Young People
7 Community Involvement
8 Crime & Disorder Reduction
Partnership
The Strategy was informed by local views and
information. The LSP's current focus is on four issues
from the action plan for the Community Strategy. These were agreed
at the LSP's 2009 Community Conference.
