Local Strategic Partnerships
Partnership working is the key to a successful Local Area Agreement (LAA), so the role of the Local Strategic Partnership (LSP) is crucial.
It should not be seen as a single forum where people meet to discuss strategy; rather it needs to become a network of activity focused on achieving real and lasting improvements that can transform local communities. As the forum for local decision-making it is vital that the LSP can demonstrate:
- it has produced a statement of involvement that is a real commitment to community and VCS participation
- a coherent approach that links to other programmes and mainstream budgets
- a clear understanding of and strategy for VCS engagement
- endorsement and delivery of compact
- a robust performance management framework
