The Podsmead Partnership

The Podsmead Partnership brings together and connects residents with health, education, housing, local council and other organisations and stakeholders under a collective umbrella to work together in the Podsmead area.

The Partnership provides a delivery infrastructure to bring investment, resources, and expertise to create local growth and opportunity whilst addressing some of the community challenges by:

  • Building capacity to deliver our joint aims and objectives for the community over the next five to ten years.
  • Sharing data and insight to build on our knowledge of the community and create better outcomes as a result.
  • Improving inequalities by understanding the needs of people and removing barriers to develop solutions.
  • Finding better ways of doing things by sharing expertise and resources.
  • Strengthening lobbying and negotiating power by working collectively.
  • Spreading the risk of service delivery and prioritising resources where they have the greatest impact.

The Podsmead Partnership meets every quarter in Podsmead, organised by Blackbridge CCBS. If you or your organisation works in the Podsmead area and would like to find out more about how you can get involved in the Podsmead Partnership, please email us at info@blackbridge.org.uk.

We encourage Podsmead residents to be part of the Podsmead Partnership and attend our meetings, so please get in touch with us for dates as we would love to see you there!
