Derbyshire Local Area Agreement

Derbyshire was one of 20 areas in the country chosen to pilot local area agreements. The commitment and strength of partnership working in Derbyshire was one of the main reasons why Derbyshire was chosen as a pilot.

The Derbyshire Local Area Agreement (LAA) was developed by the Derbyshire Partnership Forum and agreed by Ministers in March 2005.

The Derbyshire LAA has four thematic areas or "blocks" as follows:

  • Safer Communities
  • Healthier Communities and Older People
  • Children and Young People
  • Sustainable and Stronger Communities.

The agreement runs for three years from 1 April 2005 to 31 March 2008 and is updated annually through a refresh. The refresh process provides an opportunity to update indicators, targets and funding streams including within the LAA.

The original LAA document can be found in the more information section, together with the revised LAA covering 2006/2007 and the Refresh for 2007/2008. Detailed information for all outcomes, indicators and targets can be found under the outcomes section within each of the four blocks.
