Local Area Agreement
One of the Shropshire Partnership's main areas of work is the Local Area Agreement (LAA). The LAA is a three year formal agreement between central Government and the local area on priorities to improve the quality of life for local people. Shropshire's LAA was put together by the councils and other partners of the Shropshire Partnership. Please click on the links below for information on the four groups which steer the LAA:
