  • Community Plan 27-End with Cover Ali.Qxd
    PURBECK COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP - COMMUNITY PLAN FOR PURBECK PURBECK COMMUNITY 1.7. IntroductionSupporting Groups PARTNERSHIP There are other groups covering the following areas that will support the work of the Purbeck Community Partnership Task Groups: SPORT AND RECREATION Sport and recreation activities have traditionally been promoted for their own sake, however, they are now also being used to increase the quality of life for individuals and communities by successfully tackling locally identified social issues. Sport and recreation has a very important role in delivering many of the key issues that have been identified in the Purbeck Community Plan. Although sport and recreation has not been considered as a priority theme in its own right it can act as a 'vehicle' or 'tool' to help deliver the priority themes of crime reduction, transport, health, and young people. Winning the bid to host the Olympics in 2012 has guaranteed that nationally sport and recreation will have a high profile for the foreseeable future. The challenge that hosting the Olympics has set at a local level is in promoting greater participation and developing talent in competitive activities. Lead organisation: Purbeck District Council. Contact: Sport and Recreation Development Officer. Tel: 01929 557336. TOURISM Purbeck District Council Tourism Service aims to ensure that the community and economic benefits which tourism brings are maximised for the majority of the District's population, consistent with the need to minimise environmental impact. Tourism can help to drive forward priority and key issues within the community plan. This is achieved in partnership with a number of organisations including: Town & Parish Councils, Purbeck Heritage Committee, Purbeck Tourism Group, the Association of Purbeck Tourism Attractions, Swanage & Purbeck Hoteliers, the Best of Dorset Attractions Consortium, and the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site team, to name a few.

  • Dorset Council's Plan 2020
    Dorset Council’s Plan 2020 - 2024 DRAFT Introduction This is the Dorset Council plan which sets out our ambitions for the next four years. It incorporates the political vision of your new councillors. Our ambition is to put Dorset Council at the heart of the community. The creation of the new council on 1 April 2019 Local Government has enabled us to make significant savings which Reorganisation have been reinvested into council services: Dorset was served by nine councils until 1 April 2019 • the reduction in the number of councillors from 204 when a local government reorganisation reduced these to 82 has produced £400,000 per year in savings to two: • the reduction in the number of senior manager roles, • Dorset Council and staffing costs in areas of duplication like finance, (formerly Dorset County Council, East Dorset District HR, and IT will achieve savings of £5.2m in 2019/20 Council, North Dorset District Council, Purbeck District and £10m per year in a full council year Council, West Dorset District Council, Weymouth & Portland Borough Council) • the reduction of costs for insurance, audit fees and other activities where the council now only pays for • Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council one organisation rather than six. (formerly Bournemouth Borough Council, Christchurch Borough Council, Borough of Poole Council) Despite this, the council faces significant financial challenges mainly due to growing demand for: Why did we come together to form a new unitary council? • support for children with special educational needs and disabilities • To protect frontline services by reducing costs and duplication. The money saved is being reinvested • the rising number of children taken into care to keep into services including housing, road maintenance, them safe from immediate risk of harm schools, social care and waste collection.
