Marr Local Learning Community
Local Learning Community Partnerships (LLCPs) are made up of local organisations and community volunteers who share an interest in the community learning and development of the area. There are six of these partnerships across Aberdeenshire.
The partnerships feed into the strategic Aberdeenshire Learning Community Partnership (ALCP) who work towards agreed priorities. This is in line with local need and the requirements of the Scottish Government regulations for CLD.

The ALCP priorities are the focus for gathering local data and intelligence and creating a response to meet the needs of communities. The aim of the LLCP is to work together to deliver programmes and activities which will have a positive impact on those living in the area.
The priorities
- Community Empowerment - empowering people, individually and collectively, to make positive changes in their lives and in their communities, through learning.
Employment and Skills - mapping the community learning offer across Aberdeenshire ensuring progression and pathways are available to young people, adults and communities. This will develop clear progression access routes for learners to build the necessary skills and qualifications to progress in learning, training, employment and life.
The Marr LLCP has a wide and active range of partners working to support learning in this large and diverse area which includes Banchory, Alford, Aboyne and Huntly learning communities. A small subgroup has been set up to lead on the development of the partnership.
