The group of 'Southend Partnerships' embodies the commitment of leading agencies within Southend to work together to improve outcomes for residents and communities across the Borough. The lead partners are Southend-on-Sea Borough Council, Essex Police, NHS South East Essex, Essex Fire and Rescue Service and Southend Association of Voluntary Services.
Delivery of the Community Plan is currently coordinated through three Priority Leadership Groups that sit under the umbrella of Southend Partnerships; these are: Heath and Wellbeing Board, Community Safety Partnership and the Enterprise Board.
A Leaders Advisory Group, which consists of Chief Officers from the lead agencies, takes an overall Borough management role and advises the Leader of the Council on key priorities and intelligence about issues affecting Southend and its communities needing a collective response.
