A Community Strategy

‘Pride in Our Place’ is the Community Strategy for Basingstoke and Deane which was developed by the Local Strategic Partnership (LSP). The original strategy was launched in July 2003 and a revised version was published at the LSP Conference in July 2006. The document sets out our vision for the Borough and a framework for aligning our work and the work of partner organisations to achieve this.
