The Growing Opportunities Plan 2023-25 replaces the Social Inclusion Statement and Action Plan 2019-24. The objectives have been updated to reflect the national and countywide approach to Levelling Up, whilst ensuring our focus in Stratford-on-Avon District is on the communities, places and people who need the most support. The plan is hosted by our Social Inclusion Partnership (SIP) and facilitated jointly by the district and county councils where we are aiming to build upon a rich history of partnership working within the district. The Social Inclusion Partnership consists of key statutory, voluntary and third sector organisations from within the district who provide service and support to our residents. The SIP was formed in 2014 and this is the third plan co-created to address social inequality across Stratford-on-Avon District.
The plan complements council and organisation plans and strategies within our partnership. Our aim is to better understand need and build resilience across our many communities within the district. We will tailor approaches to local need using insight and ensuring that activity delivers real and lasting improvements in residents' lives.
The plan seeks to better understand the contributors to the inequalities and create choice and opportunity for our residents using a range of data from analysis and research captured in two evidence packs: evidence pack one and evidence pack two. It aims to build upon the considerable efforts of a range of organisations that already exist within the district and target effort and activity to enhance opportunities and quality of life for everyone but especially those most disadvantaged. These opportunities have been developed into actions as detailed in the Growing Opportunities Action Plan 2023-25.
