    Community Strategy Budget: Bids for Funding

    Report of the Chief Executive

    1. Summary

1.1 The following decision is sought:

        To approve an allocation of £7,000 for the Hampshire Strategic Partnership.

2. Reason:

    2.1 This decision supports Aim 4 of the Corporate Strategy (Building Strong and Safe Communities) by working together with local people to build strong and safe communities for everyone. In addition this decision supports the themes of the Community Strategy for Hampshire.

    2.2 This will be used as a contribution to support a community project in Leigh Park, Havant. The initiative was launched by SEEDA in August 2002 and involves Hampshire County Council, Portsmouth City Council and Havant Borough Council as the partners on the project. In August 2003 the partners decided to develop the work further by focusing on the preparation of detailed development briefs for three discrete neighbourhoods within the estate. Supporting this project contributes to the proposed actions in the draft Community Strategy for Hampshire in that the project targets areas of deprivation in Hampshire.

    officer consulted - Not applicable.
