WELCOME TO THE EAST RIDING LOCAL STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WEBSITE
What is a Local Strategic Partnership (LSP)?
An LSP is an umbrella partnership that brings together organisations from public, private, community and voluntary sector in a local authority area. The key objective of the LSP is to improve the quality of life in that area.
Because an LSP is locally based, the community are well placed to influence its decision-making. This provides the community with the opportunity to have their say on what services should be provided to meet their needs.
The East Riding of Yorkshire Local Strategic Partnership
Founded in 2001, the East Riding LSP is comprised of partner organisations from the public, private, voluntary and community sectors. Its key function is to develop and deliver a plan for the ongoing sustainable development of the area. Through this jointly developed Sustainable Community Plan, partners work together for the benefit of all East Riding residents and visitors, both now and in the future.
The LSP is comprised of an LSP Board and four Action Groups; all these groups are comprised of wide-ranging networks whose aim is to achieve the objectives set out in the Sustainable Community Plan. The delivery mechanism for the plan is the East Riding Local Area Agreement 2008 - 2011.
The East Riding LSP Board is responsible for overall partnership policy and decision-making. It is made up of 21 members from 19 organisations in the public, private, voluntary and community sectors.
The four Action Groups are as follows:
