Working within a diverse county Sample Clauses

Working within a diverse county. In developing the SSCF submission for Cumbria, the unique nature and needs of the county have been considered. The county is one of the most sparsely populated in England and this presents a number of challenges associated with rurality and in particular access to services etc. More than half of Cumbria’s population lives in rural areas. Yet also within Cumbria there are a small number of larger settlements that experience issues often found in urban areas undergoing industrial decline, including deprivation. These tend to be found in West Cumbria and Furness. Cumbria’s economy faces many problems. The relative decline of GVA in the county is a result of various factors, including the reliance on small businesses with low added value. Manufacturing plays a very important role for the overall GVA of the County and the decline in heavy industry creates future uncertainty. A small number of areas are in receipt of Neighbourhood Renewal Funding (figure 2) which adds another dimension to the context in which the agreement should be read. For those areas, there will be local targets set for outcomes, one and four which will reflect a narrowing of the gap between the current performance in those localities and the countywide target set as part of this agreement. Diversity across the county is reflected in the community strategies. However, there are also issues of countywide significance, which are defined, in the sub regional strategy. These type of issues include housing which in some areas is about affordability; and in others is about standards; and nuclear decommissioning which will impact on a large number of people in the West of Cumbria, will impact on the economy of the whole county. The small percentage of black and minority ethnic residents in Cumbria’s census figures masks a high level of migrant workers in, for example, tourism and agriculture. The partners in the SSCF agreement are committed to promoting community cohesion and tackling hate crime as key objectives. Cumbria Police are committed to investigating 100% of all hate crime incidents but the partnership has not set a target for reducing the number of incidents as it does not want to discourage reporting. The final SSCF agreement needs to work within and achieve real outcomes for such a diverse county. Where areas are in receipt of neighbourhood renewal funding for specific locations, the agreement will need to recognise this and build on plans already in place for the locality. The submissi...
