what is a Local Strategic Partnership?

A Local Strategic Partnership (LSP) is a non-statutory, multi-agency body, which matches local authority boundaries.  It aims to bring together at a local level the different parts of the public, private, community and voluntary sectors. 

Lack of joined up working at the local level has been one of the key reasons for lack of progress in delivering sustainable economic, social and physical regeneration or improved services that meets the needs of local people.

In Hampshire there are 11 Local Strategic Partnerships (LSP) 6 of which cover rural areas.
