Working together
An increasing proportion of services are now delivered jointly,
with more than one organisation working together. This way we
can achieve much more than we could as individual
organisations working in isolation. Community Planning
is the name that has been given to this process.
What is Community Planning?
Community Planning is about public, private and voluntary sector
organisations coming together to plan and provide for the wellbeing
of the communities that they serve. It's about delivering
better services by working together and sharing resources for the
greater benefit of the community. It is also about ensuring
that people are able to influence the decisions of the
organisations that serve them.
The ultimate aim of Community Planning is to make Perth and Kinross
a better place to live, work and visit for everyone in all of our
communities. By working together to improve our health,
safety, environment, economic prospects and learning opportunities,
we can achieve so much more than we could by working in
isolation. And we're also far more likely to deliver the
improvements in service that people in Perth and Kinross really
want to see.
