Engagement with the Community
9. Engagement with partners, the business community and the community
is critical to the success of the community planning process. The LSP’s
commitment to developing engagement is demonstrated in each of the
Community Strategies it has produced and the reports of the 3 community
conferences which have taken place since the launch of the LSP. The
community conference has been the main tool for engagement so far,
however, this has been supported by consultation undertaken by partner
organisations and by the theme partnerships. Examples include the Crime
Audit, the PCT locality events, and the council’s 3 year MORI survey. The
development of community engagement is a key issue for the LSP in the
