Tackling key issues for local people such as
crime, health, education and housing requires a range of local
organisations working together. There are already many successful
partnerships in which the council is already involved that have
influenced partners to move away from thinking about particular
services in terms of agencies and funding, to a concentration on
functions and activities that cut across a host of organisations
and partners. The Council supports this truly innovative approach
to ensure that local people really benefit from the delivery of
local services and therefore improve and enhance their quality of
life.
