The LECP is to consist of two distinct but related elements, a Community Plan and an Economic Plan. The community element of the plan is to be developed by the Local Community Development Committee (LCDC) while the economic element of the plan is to be developed by the Local Authority through the SPC. The Wicklow Local Community Development Committee (LCDC) is responsible for developing, coordinating and implementing a coherent and integrated approach to local and community development in the County. The LCDC has a key role in the formulation of the Local Economic and Community Plan (LECP) that will support and steer the social and economic development of County Wicklow over the next six-years. This socio economic profile of County Wicklow is a key element of the data gathering process and provides the county council with critical data on the socio-economic structure of the County. The aim of this report is to provide Wicklow County Council with an economic profile for the County based on the data from amongst other sources, Census 2011, POWSCAR, Department of Social Protection, GeoDirectory and 2011 Pobal HP Deprivation Index. The profile provides detail on the status of Wicklow in a national and regional context. This profile analysis builds on work carried out by Wicklow County Council in the County Wicklow Economic Profile

Irreparable damage to Planet Earth, our home, has already happened. Now is the time to act much more decisively to halt further damage. If we don’t look after our home, where will we live?
