Sustainable Community Strategy
Sustainable Community Strategies aim to improve the economic, social and environmental wellbeing of local areas and have a stronger focus on balancing the needs of the local economy together with environmental and social issues.
In 2006, the Sustainable Community Strategy for Bolsover District 2006-2020 was launched following an extensive consultation exercise with local communities and key public, private, and voluntary and community organisations.
In 2012, Bolsover Partnership agreed to refresh the Sustainable Community Strategy and subsequently via its thematic partnerships; a refreshed document has been produced along with a summary document.
The Strategy provides a common vision among our Partners for the local area:
"OUR SUSTAINABLE Community Strategy has a vision of a diverse, healthy, fair and prosperous district, building on the strengths of our industrial past to become a vibrant, thriving community capable of meeting the challengs and the opportunities of the future."
The intention of the Community Strategy is to focus on the themes where there is a clear need to bring together different sections of the
community. Public, private and voluntary sector organisations, community groups and local people work together to deliver improved services and quality of life in local areas. This shared commitment is necessary to work towards the long-term vision and to deal with the key challenges that face us.
Our Community Strategy comprises six main themes:
