Areas are therefore deprived if there is inadequate education, inadequate housing, unemployment, insufficient income, poor health, and low opportunities for enjoyment. A deprived area is conventionally understood to be a place in which the residents tend to be relatively poor and are relatively likely to suffer from misfortunes such as ill-health. The Index of Multiple Deprivation 2015 (IMD 2015) is the current official measure of deprivation. The IMD 2015 combines a number of indicators, chosen to cover a range of economic, social and housing issues, into a single deprivation score for each small area in England. This allows each area to be ranked relative to one another according to their level of deprivation. The IMD 2015 is not routinely available at neighbourhood level, analysis has therefore been carried out by Plymouth City Council, Office of the Director of Public Health to produce IMD 2015 scores for each of the city's 39 neighbourhoods. The higher the score, the more deprived the area is on that measure.

The framework should be viewed as a partnership, rather than a South Hams District Council, document reflecting the fact that many projects will be led by other organisations or partnerships and recognising the need for coordinated, targeted delivery of green infrastructure. The following organisations provided comments on a draft version of the framework: Devon Biodiversity Records Centre, Devon Birdwatching and Preservation Society, Devon County Council, Devon Wildlife Trust, Environment Agency, National Trust, Natural England, RSPB, South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Unit and the Woodland Trust. Ideas for green infrastructure projects were also identified through an online survey open to members of the public. All comments received have been taken into account in this final document. The production of the framework has been funded and supported by the South Devon Green Infrastructure Partnership comprising Natural England, South Hams District Council, Torbay Council, Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust, South Devon Area of Outstanding
