Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG)
Cities and Region
Communities and Local Government aims to create economically strong cities and regions which drive forward national prosperity and provide opportunity and social justice for all. They are creating vibrant, diverse and attractive places where people want to live, work and play.
Communities and Neighbourhood
Communities and Local Government is working to help people and local agencies create cohesive, attractive and economically vibrant communities. We are working to ensure communities are capable of fulfilling their own potential and overcoming their own difficulties, including community conflict, extremism, deprivation and disadvantage. And we aim to empower communities to respond to challenging economic, social and cultural trends.

Leeds Initiative
Leeds Initiative Website
The Leeds Initiative is the city's local strategic partnership, led by Leeds City Council.
Leeds first embraced the concept and practicalities of partnership in the 1990s and throughout the decade developed it in depth to cover virtually every area of city life. The Initiative has since grown to become a very effective body that provides a strategic approach to the city's long-term development.
It unifies the diverse partnership groups and delivers not just a forum for debate and networking, but a real commitment and sense of pupose and direction.
