The North Kesteven Local Strategic Partnership is the strategic
partnership (LSP) for the area of North Kesteven. The Community
Sports Network Management Board is a sub group of the North
Kesteven Local Strategic Partnership’s Vibrant Safe
Healthy Communities Theme Group.
The Partnership brings together the public, private, voluntary
and community sectors. The aim of the Partnership is to improve
the quality of life of the local population by working together
and co-coordinating activities. In this way, public services
will be delivered more in accordance with local need, and
people will be more able to influence decision-making to improve
their communities. Another aim is to help members of the LSP
cut down on bureaucracy and waste, and to introduce new ways
of working such as sharing information and budgets.
