Local Community Plans
NPs - taking partnership working forward
Neighbourhood Partnerships (NPs) monitor their progress
individually every year through their local community plans.
NP activities bring improvements to local area and communities,
and are based on the issues that local people have idenitified as
priorities for the area.

City wide, NPs are helping the city's public sector
partners to achieve agreed partnership objectives
set out in Edinburgh's Single Outcome
Agreement.
Tracking our progress
Each of the 12 Neighbourhood Partnerships (NPs) across the city
develop Local Community Plans, and then work together to deliver
these. At the heart of all the Local Community Plans are priorities
identified by local people.
Each NP is different and a wide range of activities are
developed which best suit the issues or local concerns of each
particular area. It is likely that many of these will contribute
]to efforts to tackle deprivation at a local level.
It is therefore important that we can measure progress towards
the priorities of the Local Community Plans (which contribute to
city wide outcomes) and the changes the NPs bring to the quality of
life in each area.
The progress of all NPs is measured across 5 main themes:
- Early Intervention
- Health and Wellbeing
- Employability
- Safer Communities
- Environment
The Neighbourhood
Partnership Performance Booklet summarises performance across
all 12 Neighbourhood Partnerships.
Previous progress reports
An Annual Update was produced in 2008, to
highlight examples of early operational successes and action
from NPs across the city. This followed a review of
Neighbourhood Partnerships, and a report Review
of Neighbourhood Partnerships considered by the City of
Edinburgh Council in October 2008.
In 2009, a conference was held for 185 Neighbourhood
Partnerships delegates, entitled
Going Forward Together. The event highlighted the progress of
all partners within Neighbourhood Partnerships to contribute to
making positive and active changes in local areas.
