Hello and welcome to the Springedition of our newsletter.

The ECLP cluster has now been running a year and during this time we have developed positive relationships with many groups, individuals and families f individuals and families from across the area. As we plan for the next twelve months, we have developed projects based on what you have told us will have the most impact for local people.

As well as delivering our work aaround Health, Learning and Prosperity, our Officers are also responsible for involving all of the Community in our work.

Within this edition of the newsletter you can see an overview of each of the six communities in the cluster and the officers who are your local points of contact.

IIf you would like to nd out more about Communities First or have an idea for activities we could support please get in touch with one of your local officers or through the contact details on the back of this nenewsletter.

We hope to see you soon at some of our events.

Best wishes
