New LAA Leaflets
"What are local area agreements?" is an information leaflet for
LIOs and the broader third sector. It explains how local area
agreements (LAAs) work and why and how third sector organisations
should engage with them. It is now in an updated second edition
which includes information on multi-area agreements (MAAs) and on
how LAAs work in two-tier authorities. You can
order up to 500 copies
to give to your members for free!
"Local area agreement - what's it got to do with me?" is aimed
at citizens engaged in community action and provides a simple
introduction to LAAs, making the links between community activity
influencing local decision making with support from LIOs. Copies of
this can be ordered by emailing
