Delivery

This section sets out details of the partnership projects designed to deliver improvement. Delivery Planning sets out how to achieve the outcomes in the Shetland Partnership Plan 2018-2028, including resources available and time scales.

The Plan was adopted by community planning partners in June 2018.  It identifies a shared vision and four key priorities for all of us to work towards, both individually and collectively, to improve the lives of everyone in Shetland.

Our Shared Vision

“Shetland is a place where everyone is able to thrive; living well in strong, resilient communities; and where people and communities are able to help, plan and deliver solutions to future challenges”

These are linked together – looking at what one community or area needs, and getting everyone living, working and delivering services to work together to help make it better for everyone – focusing on what’s important to the people who live there.  This is, not least, because every community, every settlement and every isle has their own individual challenges and requirements.

Supported by:

 

Place-Based Working in Shetland

Working collaboratively with partners, including communities to identify ideas for change and better solutions (Broadly 'Place' Priority).

Delivery Plan 2023/2028

This new Delivery Plan was produced as the result of a review, at the start of 2023, resulting in a new Delivery Plan being approved by the Management and Leadership Team of the Shetland Partnership, by 1st April 2023.

The review took learning from the first Delivery Plan, used the Partnership Risk Register and assessed progress against the Partnership Plan Outcomes, Indicators, Delivery Plan Projects, Recommendations from Shetland’s Commission on Tackling Inequalities and Shetland’s Annual Child Poverty Action Report.  This highlighted a list of community challenges and delivery weaknesses for Shetland to tackle.  The aim was to put in place a Delivery Plan where the Shetland Partnership, led by the Management and Leadership Team, could make a significant difference and add-value to Shetland’s partnership landscape, addressing these challenges and weaknesses.
