Community Planning Partnership

Engaging Our Communities

Our Community Planning Board Representatives

Two community representatives sit on our Community Planning Board and are elected by local representative and umbrella community groups.

Joe Lafferty, from Wallacetoun and Newton regeneration Forum, represents the Kyle, or north part, of South Ayrshire.

David Kiltie, from Maybole Community Council, represents the Carrick, or southern part, of South Ayrshire.

Joe and David bring a community perspective to the work of the Community Planning Partnership and consult with their local groups by means of an email network.

Our Annual Community Conference

Each year we hold an annual conference to enable members of our community and voluntary sector organisations to get together with our community planning partners and elected members.

The first conference was held in June 2008 with the second a year later in June 2009.

Community Engagement Events

South Ayrshire Community Planning Partnership is committed to engaging with our communities in order to work effectively in partnership to deliver sustained improvements to our citizens and to understand the needs of our communities and involve them in setting priorities and shaping services.

We recently held three community engagement events in Troon, Maybole and Girvan using the VOiCE method which is a nationally recognised method used to evidence and report back on community engagement activity.
