PARTNERS

OUR PARTNERSHIP

East Lothian Community Planning Partnership - ELCPP for short - is the lead organisation for community planning in East Lothian.

Ours is a broad based partnership of organisations from the public, voluntary, private and community sectors that work together in a community planning way.

We want to ensure that all East Lothian services truly meet the needs of the people who use them or who are affected by them - in the long term we aim to achieve our Statement of Intent for East Lothian. 

Partners work together through interest groups or through a local area. Together these form a far-reaching network of organisations, groups and individuals that contribute to community planning in East Lothian.
