LAP Area 8

Local Area Partnership 8 covers Blackwall & Cubitt Town, and Millwall wards. To check which local area partnership you live in, use the LAP finder.

The local area partnership has formed a steering group which helps to organise and develop the work of the LAPs, planning events and meetings for example.

The next meeting of the steering group is on Thursday 24  July 2008, 6.30 - 8.30pm (This will be a closed meeting open only to steering group members).  

Its membership is drawn from local stakeholders. There is guidance for the operation of steering groups. Below are notes of past local area partnership 8 events and meetings. 

Action plans for each local area partnership have been drawn up to help translate what residents are saying into action. Below is the current and the previous action plan:
Local Area Partnership 8 Action Plan 2007-2008
Local Area Partnership 8 Action Plan 2006-2007

The report provides key data on health, housing, crime, employment and education, and includes analysis at both ward and borough level. It also sets out the progress the Partnership has made towards achieving the Government's National Neighbourhood Renewal Floor Targets.
