Communities First is the Welsh Assembly Government's flagship programme for improving the living conditions and life chances of people living in the most deprived communities in Wales. It is a long term programme that acknowledges the central role community involvement must play in delivering real and sustainable change.
|
Communities First aims to:
|
|
|
get local people involved in improving their areas and their own prospects
|
|
encourage flexibility, risk-taking and new ways of dealing with problems
|
|
bring in funding and support from a range of sources to make things happen
|
|
involve everyone working together to identify and do something about their community's problems
|
|
make sure improvements last
|
Work undertaken as part of the programme is informed by the (recently revised) Communities First Vision Framework. The Framework is organised around six key themes:
|
|
|
|
Jobs, Business and Income Generation
|
|
Community Safety
|
|
Health and Well Being
|
|
Education, Skills and Training
|
|
Child Poverty
|
|
