Partnership plans
Orkney Community Plan 2025-30 - incoporating the Local Outcomes Improvement Plan (LOIP)
Every community planning partnership is required to publish a Local Outcomes Improvement Plan (LOIP). The Orkney Community Plan incorporates Orkney's LOIP and is refreshed, updated and reissued every year. It describes what we aim to achieve by working together in partnership.
Locality Plan 2024-2026 - Ferry Linked Isles
Every community planning partnership in Scotland must produce one or more locality plans. A locality plan identifies local areas which are relatively disadvantaged in terms of social and economic opportunities and sets out what the partnership will do to improve outcomes in the area.
For this plan, priorities for action were identified from the development plans produced by the communities on each island.
