Our Local Strategic Partnerships (LSP) has identified the strategic issues that affect the East Lindsey District. In 2007 we published our Community Plan ‘Engaging East Lindsey’, this identified the areas to be addressed and defined 8 priorities within the district.

Some issues faced by our communities cannot be resolved by one organisation or agency working alone. By working together through the LSP the delivery of services can be improved, resources can be reallocated, and mainstream programmes can be used to tackle the issues that matter to local people. Our partnership does not receive any additional resources to deliver activities but works together to tackle issues more effectively.

Local Strategic Partnerships are non-statutory bodies that were introduced by the government in 2000 as part of the national strategy for Neighbourhood Renewal.
