Local Strategic Partnership

The Ashford Partnership

 

The Ashford Partnership is the district level Local Strategic Partnership (LSP) for the Ashford borough. The Partnership Board comprises 20 representatives from the key public, private, voluntary and community sectors active in Ashford.

 

The Board meets 5 times a year and is supported by three themed sub-groups:

  • The Community Infrastructure Working Group
  • The Community Safety Partnership
  • The Health & Well Being Sub-Group

 

The Partnership was first established in 2002 and prepared its first Community Strategy in 2004. The Community Strategy sets out a shared vision for Ashford Borough and sets out the key priorities and projects that the partners have agreed to work together to deliver. The Strategy was refreshed in October 2008 as the Ashford Sustainable Community Strategy and can be downloaded here

The Partnership is currently reviewing the Strategy in the light of the results of the major community engagement exercise carried out in Ashford during February and March 2010 (“Have Your Say”), which asked residents and businesses for their views on local priorities. The Partnership is also responding to the changes in public sector service delivery and governance introduced by the Coalition Government from the summer of 2010.
