Vision for Portsmouth
Have Your Say on the Vision of Portsmouth
Below you will find the priorities agreed by the Local Strategic Partnership (LSP) as forming the Vision for Portsmouth and the current Story of Portsmouth. These have been developed through extensive consultation, including both a Community & Voluntary Sector Consultation (18 July 07) and an LSP Conference (8 November).
The LSP is now consulting on final draft version of the Story of Portsmouth which will help to identify the high level outcomes of where we want to be in ten years and what the key measures of success will be. The deadline for submissions passed on 22 February but further information will be published here when available.
