Community Infrastructure Support Group
The Community Infrastructure Support Group's purpose is:
To develop a strategic approach to the planning and provision of community capacity building activities delivered within Redcar & Cleveland by promoting better collaboration and coordination between the various support organisations locally around (but not exclusively restricted to) the following issues:
- Pooling information to establish a map of need for community capacity building across the Borough
- Mapping existing provision by support organisations delivering community capacity building activities within the Borough
- Providing evidence of the long term value of community capacity building to local funders and agencies and advising them on models for more sustained and consistent funding
- Jointly considering redeployment or rationalisation to fill gaps and seeking additional resources to fill gaps which cannot be met by rationalisation
- Mapping issues covered, including where community capacity building is generic and where it is issue-specific, and seeking ways to fill gaps in issues covered
- Establishing common or reciprocal objectives and organising networking and cross-referral to maximise the impact of community capacity building activities
- Agreeing ways to capture outcomes and linking the indicators in the Local Area Agreement and Sustainable Community Strategy with other community capacity building objectives, processes and measures
- Agreeing steps to bring all community capacity building practice up to an agreed standard.
- Prepare quarterly reports to the Stronger Communities Partnership summarising Infrastructure activity within the Redcar & Cleveland Area.
