Leith Local Community Plan 2011-14
A Local Community Plan sets out the community's priorities for the improvement of local services. The local community are the best people to know what their area needs and are the best people to ask to set the priorities. Only then can work begin on identifying resources and initiating projects to bring about a positive change.
Leithers are now being asked to give their views on what they see as service priorities for Leith for the next three years. Give your views by clicking on the link - http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/H83SJ7G

Leith Local Community Plan 2009 - 2011
The drafting of the Leith Local Community Plan started in June 2007 at a consultation event attended by more than 70 delegates from partner agencies and the local community. The huge task of identifying the priorities for Leith began in the thematic workshops on that day. Recent research and reports carried out in Leith were also taken into account and further consultation was carried out with local people to bring about the Leith Priorities to be worked towards over the next three years. A detailed Action Plan is required to enable the Community Plan to progress. Download documents on the links below:

Leith Action Plan
The Leith Community Engagement Strategy and Action Group was a short-life working group set up to draft a Community Engagement Strategy for Leith. The group was made up of Council Officials, Representatives from Voluntary Organisations and, most importantly, Community Representatives. The group audited current community engagement within the Partnership area, looked at recent research reports in which community engagement in Leith was discussed and noted comments made by local people. This resulted in a set of recommendations intended to lay a more solid foundation upon which to build a greater community involvement in community planning.
The Community Enagagment Strategy is now being implemented.
