Relevant Council Plan Key Theme: Nottingham People Living in Nottingham Growing Nottingham Respect for Nottingham Serving Nottingham Better
Summary of issues (including benefits to citizens/service users): Due to the collaborative working of Nottingham City Council and partner organisations during the Government lockdown of the COVID-19 Pandemic, area partnerships evolved naturally to support the community.
Nottingham City Council and partner organisations realised that to continue to support the community they needed a strategic change, a permanent structure to enable them to combine their knowledge and resources to maintain the support of our communities, especially the most vulnerable of society. With this realisation in mind the formation of Partnership/Community Hubs are proposed.
Each of the Area Partnerships will have their own distinct ambitions, vision and priorities aimed at meeting the local needs and aspirations of residents living in the wards that fall within the Area Committee boundaries.
The Neighbourhood Development officers working with the Nottingham Trent University MBA students have carried out some research to investigate and recommend which Community hub/hubs model will fit better locally to meet the changing need and demand of the communities living in the areas during and post Covid. The Community hub/hubs will support the delivery of the Area priorities which will help reframe the connections and relationships between statutory, voluntary and faith sectors and change the way services are operating by removing silo working, barriers and exploring opportunities for joint working, funding, and collectively adding value.
The Area Partnerships will be aligned to the existing 7 Area Committees. Each Area Partnership will be reporting to the Area Committee.
Page 11
Recommendations: 1 To note the proposed way forward for agreeing a community hub model for the Basford, Berridge and Sherwood Wards.
2 To support the Area Partnership in delivering the initial actions recommended in appendix 2 – further consultation, ensuring senior representation, and identifying key communications channels and messages.
1 Reasons for recommendations
1.1 Based on the findings of the report the Area Partnership will develop Area Actions Plans once the vision has been identified and agreed. This will lead into discussions about what a community hub in the area could look like.
1.2 Eventual implementation of Community Hubs within the wards will benefit the community by providing better-connected services and resources. Partners’ organisations will work more closely, allowing for innovative ideas and increased flexibility to better adapt and change when the circumstances arise. This new way of working will need a change in mind-set, which will take time, but if all parties are prepared to embrace this and work together, then the benefit for the future of the community is optimistic.
2 Background (including outcomes of consultation)
2.1 The purpose of this report is to demonstrate the initial work carried out by Nottingham City Council and partner organisations, building on the cluster model that developed during wave one of the COVID-19 pandemic to support the community by creating an Area partnership approach. This approach directly links to Nottingham Council Plan, ensuring voluntary and community organisations are central to the way we consult with citizens (Respect for Nottingham). Allowing neighbourhoods to invest in and run their own local community hubs and assets through community asset trust and providing inclusive and accessible services for our citizens. (Serving Nottingham Together/Equal Nottingham).
2.2 The Neighbourhood Management Teams (NDOs) began by looking at the lessons learnt from their experience during the wave one COVID-19 period, recording which local services they were able to call upon in the height of the pandemic, the services the community most needed. The team also looked at the recurring needs frequently raised during that period.
2.3 They carried out a desktop exercise to look at the data e.g. the Government Statistics (appendix 1) to determine if it supported their findings.
2.4 The team formulated a questionnaire from their findings, distributed it to the partner organisations involved to complete, and invited them to a meeting to discuss the results.
2.5 This questionnaire and meeting were designed to determine the other partner organisation’s priorities and if there was a consensus among the all organisations. The team asked the partner organisations to select four key priorities from the questionnaire/meeting based on the themes that had gained most importance during wave one COVID-19 pandemic, relevant to all wards in the area. The return of the questionnaires was too low to be statistically viable but the analysis is available on request. Page 12 3 Other options considered in making recommendations
3.1 None. The Covid Pandemic has identified the need to formalise an Area Partnership.
4 Finance colleague comments (including implications and value for money/VAT)
4.1 At present there are no financial implications but this may change in the future. Any new financial implications will be discussed at future Area Committee Meetings.
5 Legal and Procurement colleague comments
5.1 None.
6 Strategic Assets & Property colleague comments
6.1 None.
7 Equality Impact Assessment (EIA)
7.1 This is currently been completed with the Equality and Employability Team and will be attached as an appendix in the next report. Due regard will be given to any implications identified in it.

As the measures for this include air quality and traffic casualties the proximity to Mansfield Road may be affecting the positions of these SOAs. Sherwood has very differing extremes for income deprivation affecting children. E01013966 and E01013963 rank 54th and 56th respectively (within the 10% most deprived. At the other end of the scale, E01013968 (by Woodthorpe Park is within the 80-100% section.

beginning of April and so will continue to reduce. We have now started some enforcement action, and this has brought some positive results with some lump sum payments being made. We have had notification of our first Court date, which is in mid-November. It is hoped that the ability to use enforcement as a tool will reflect in a slowing down in the increase in the debt. Lettings and Relocation Support commentary: We have seen an increase in voids and average relet time compared to last year due to the impact of Covid-19. In part this has been due to the number of people willing to move in this uncertain period, and in particular older people, which has impacted on letting our Independent Living homes. There has also been an impact on carrying out work in empty homes as we need to ensure social distancing guidelines are followed. The number of applicants has remained stable as we continue to work to prioritise housing the homeless and most vulnerable. Repairs and Maintenance commentary: Responsive Repairs have been working to clear the backlog created over the first covid-19 lockdown period. We worked to a 10-week recovery program, utilising a more planned, street-by-street approach to
Page 44 Page complete the deferred repairs. Progress fluctuated, depending on access rates, but with proactive tenant communication (either via text or phone call) we have cleared the backlog in Repairs. This program and the reduction in resource due to self-isolating in the second wave has generated longer waiting times for some Repairs.

Summary of issues (including benefits to citizens/service users): This report focuses on current priorities and issues facing Basford, Berridge and Sherwood Wards and gives details of forthcoming events and activities. It also highlights the latest issues being addressed through regular Neighbourhood Action Team (NAT) meetings.
Recommendation: 1 To note the progress on ward priorities and other supporting information, including issues being addressed by each NAT (appendices 1, 2 and 3), and the current NAT performance data (appendix 4).
1 Reasons for recommendations
1.1 Each Ward has agreed priorities that link to the City Council’s current ambitions contained in the latest City Council Plan 2015 - 19. Actions for each priority will be developed and led by appropriate service teams and partnerships. These priorities will be updated for each area committee, taking into account discussions at NAT meetings and various groups and activities involving Councillors, residents and local groups.
1.2 The events and activities detailed in the report take account of the work which all NDOs undertake with partner organisations within the wards. It shows a range of activity in place across neighbourhoods to improve social cohesion and tackle priorities at a ward and area level.
2 Background (including outcomes of consultation)
2.1 Each Ward manages a set of priorities and key issues through regular meetings of the NAT. These meetings are led by Neighbourhood Development Officers (NDOs) and supported by core partners including Nottingham City Homes (NCH), Neighbourhood Policing, Community Protection, Early Help, City Services / Waste Management; Fire and Rescue Services and Health. Page 55
2.2 Ward Councillors are also invited to participate in these meetings.
2.3 Ward priorities are identified and informed from a range of sources including Citizens, Councillors, Partners and Officers and current issues will be updated for each area committee.
2.4 Ward Reports also reflect some of the wider area concerns and priorities which have been either addressed previously through area committee or have been developed as part of the Area Cluster reviews. Some of these wider priorities such as health and employment will be taken forward through appropriate area focussed meetings.
2.5 The intention is to work towards a Ward Report which is consistent across all City wards.
2.6 Area Committee Chairs will be invited to review the latest Ward Reports to ensure that the format is accessible for Councillors and community representatives and there is sufficient consistency across all areas.
2.7 The current individual Ward priorities for Basford, Berridge and Sherwood are shown in appendices 1, 2 and 3 respectively and will be updated for each Area Committee.
2.8 The ward priorities also make reference to a number of development sites which are listed within the Neighbourhood Regeneration Strategy document – Building a Better Nottingham.
