This is the annual report for the Barking and Dagenham Partnership for 2010/11. To help you understand what we are all about we have put together a few pieces of information on what we do. We have followed this up with the key achievements of the Partnership in the past year.
In the past year there have been a number of changes that have impacted on the way Local Strategic Partnerships operate nationally. We have been working hard in Barking and Dagenham to ensure that we can be flexible to meet the priorities of the people in the borough, to build a strong community and to ensure strong leadership in these tough times.
The challenges and changes that we have faced include cuts in public sector spending, the Coalition Government‟s Big Society philosophy including a focus on localism, health service reforms, policing reforms, the introduction of Local Enterprise Partnerships, Community (Place Based) Budgets and being nominated as an Olympic Host Borough, to name just a few.
The Public Service Board has worked hard to understand the impact of national policy changes for the communities of Barking and Dagenham. We are striving to lead the borough to take advantage of the opportunities these changes present and minimise the risks. The key projects and work are distributed to and managed by individual theme boards.
A summary of the Partnership‟s achievements of the past year and its future aims are contained on this page.
