2023 Mapping of LLCP Work
Aberdeenshire 6 LLCPs' Mapping of work aligned to 4 key priorities
The information gathered shows that across the Shire there are a variety of projects and provision is being developed and delivered under the four key priorities of Aberdeenshire Community Learning and Development Plan 2021 – 2024. A sample of the work that is currently taking place across the 6 Aberdeenshire LLCPs can be found below.
We have found that there is a stronger focus on Key Priority 1: Improving health and wellbeing through community learning and development, however, partners are acknowledging that the key priorities interlink and by delivering a project under Key priority 1 they are also working on the resilience and community capacity building under Key priority 3.
When partners discussed gaps and ways of working more effectively, the majority acknowledged changes in partnership working post Covid, resulting in some partners not being aware of other partnership groups’ work at a local and area level. This identified the need to do a Mapping exercise to recognise the work and aims of organisations and other partnership groups across the 6 areas.
