Local authorities help Local Community Development Committees to create an integrated approach to community development by coordinating access to funding, developing and delivering projects, and promoting community engagement.
Local authorities may prepare strategies for development of public parks and open spaces. You can have an input into the strategies through consultation.
Local authorities, together with other agencies, may support community and voluntary groups to showcase initiatives that have created a long lasting impact in their community such as creative wellbeing, place and community tourism projects.
