Locality Planning

In addition to producing Shetland’s Partnership Plan, which covers the whole of Shetland, the Shetland Partnership is also required to plan at a more local level.

This is referred to as Locality Planning. Find out more about what we are doing in this area.

Locality Profiles

As part of the process around developing Shetland’s Partnership Plan, we also gathered information about areas within Shetland. Using a range of data sources we then created a series of Locality Profiles.

These Locality Profiles are designed to be a snapshot of the Locality with some comparisons to the Shetland data; and they include a blurb about the localities, contact details, data sources, and links to the website for more information. These profiles cover:

Shetland Central, Blue: #259bdfShetland Central
Lerwick and Bressay, Red #CB4851Lerwick & Bressay
Shetland North, Purple #AE569FShetland North
Shetland South, Yellow: #e0e00fShetland South
Shetland West, Green: #74a72fShetland West
Whalsay and Skerries, Teal: #25dfc6Whalsay & Skerries
Yell, Unst and Fetlar, Orange: #e0780fYell, Unst & Fetlar
