LOCHABER COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP


The Lochaber Community Partnership is one of ten local partnerships which have been established geographically across Highland to ensure that community planning can be delivered successfully at a local level. 
 
We promise to actively listen to the community, to identify the local challenges as expressed by them and commit to taking action that will reduce disadvantage and inequality.   We will use our combined resources creatively to produce solutions that are meaningful and valued by the community we serve. 

The Lochaber Community Partnership is made up of 5 core agencies. These agencies are:-
  • The Highland Council,
  • Police Scotland,
  • Scottish Fire and Rescue Service,
  • Highlands and Islands Enterprise
  • NHS Highland
​
Highlife Highland and the Highland Third Sector Interface represented by Voluntary Action Lochaber also play an important role in the partnership to achieve the following:

  1. Promoting equality, meeting diverse needs of people and communities
  2. Building resilient places and communities
  3. Supporting wellbeing and health.

Lochaber Community Partnership is set up to provide a forum within the local area where partner agencies and the community can come together to plan and take forward the needs of the local community.

​Lochaber Partnership have been tasked with developing Locality Plans for 3 areas.
  • Kinlochleven
  • Caol
  • Fort William (upper) including Claggan

These areas have been identified as areas highest on the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation within Lochaber.
The development of Children’s Plans (Highland Council) and Adults Plans (NHS) is also a requirement.

How to get involved?

As a Partnership we are in the process of gathering initial views and opinions from lot of different people about what they feel is good or what could be better about where they live and the services they receive.  We would like to make sure you can get involved so we have multiple things happening but if you aren't able to make it along to an event, conversation or to complete the online survey please get in touch to tell us what you need and we will try to meet those needs if at all possible.

Equally if you are part of a community group or organisation and you would like someone from the Partnership to come and speak with your group please let us know and we shall do what we can.
