Arran Locality Partnership

Building baseline Profiles for the Locality Partnership

Arran – What the Profile will cover?

• Priorities from workshops & People’s Panel 2015• Population change – from 2012 to 2026• General health & life expectancy• Household Incomes• Education ‐ results at key stages• Housing – average house prices• Key strengths and needs

Priorities from People’s Panel & workshops (2015 )

• 2000 North Ayrshire residents surveyed every 2 years with follow‐up focus groups.

• Question “What are the most important aims for partnership working in North Ayrshire”

• The aim “We live our lives safe from crime, disorder and danger” was selected by the greatest number of respondents as one of their top 5.  It was also more likely to be selected as the most important.

• In the Arran 45% of respondents selected this aim as one of their top 5 aims.  

• However a higher proportion of Arran residents (55%)selected “Our young people are successful learners,confident individuals, effective contributors and responsible citizens” as their top aim

Percentage of Arran respondents selecting priority as  a top 5 aim 

• The workshops generated 943 comments from over 150 people who participated.

• Workshops consulted on the membership, role and responsibilities of new Partnerships:

– Are these the right people? Anyone missing?– Are these a fair set of responsibilities? Anything missing?

– What should be the role of Partnerships in the development and delivery of Locality Plans?
