I have been asked to pass on the following e mail which invites members of the community to find out more about changes in the way the way N E Lincs Council will be delivering many of it’s services:

Dear Colleague,

As you are aware North East Lincolnshire Council and its partners are embarking on a new Neighbourhood Management approach to the way we work within our neighbourhoods, to deliver quality services tailored to meet the needs of the local communities across 5 geographical areas within North East Lincolnshire.

And indeed some of you are already involved in working with us to develop the framework across all areas, and additionally the development of the two pilots; Immingham- which includes Stallingborough and Habrough and ‘Fiveways’ which covers the wards of East Marsh, Sidney Sussex and Hainton Heneage.

The three remaining areas which are currently under development on a rolling programme and for purpose of clarity have been given temporary working titles are:
Central – which covers the wards of West Marsh, South, Freshney, Yarborough and Park.
Haverstoe – which covers the wards of Croft Baker, Humberston and New Waltham and, Haverstoe
which covers the wards of Waltham, Scartho and Wolds

A great deal of work has already taken place to progress this new agenda at a strategic level, involving Ward, Parish and Town Councillors. The next phase is to involve communities and operational staff in a series of area based workshops.

The purpose of these workshops is to communicate and share the vision and principles set by the  Local Strategic Partnership in relation to this new way of working and to provide people with the opportunity to understand and become more involved in the process .

The Neighbourhood Management Project Board would like the opportunity to discuss this agenda in further detail with you and have therefore asked that I invite you to attend the ‘Central’ workshop arranged to take place on Tuesday 24th November 2009 between 10am and 1pm at Grimsby Town Hall.

Please contact either myself or Jane Mansfield should you need any further clarification.

Regards
Debbie
