Families and Neighbourhoods - Local Area Agreement
The Local Area Agreement is based on delivering services more closely to how people live their lives by dealing with the particular needs of individuals, looking at how they relate to the family they are part of and also the neighbourhoods where they live.
The Agreement includes 21 key improvements with targets to be achieved over the next 3 years. These include increasing business formation in the district, increasing employment, increasing educational attainment, reducing domestic violence and reducing homelessness.
On 31 March 2006, Wakefield Together Board Members attended a special event in Wakefield Town Hall to sign the Local Area Agreement, which featured the key note speech by Yvette Cooper MP, Minister for Housing and Planning.
