Welcome to the St Albans and District Local Strategic Partnership website

Welcome to the website of St Albans and District Local Strategic Partnership (LSP), an organisation made up of representatives from public, private, voluntary and community sectors. It is not exclusively made up of either the District Council, the Chamber of Commerce, the NHS or the County Council, but is a unique partnership between these organisations and others established to work towards a more prosperous and pleasant community in this part of Hertfordshire.

The shape and the direction of the St Albans and District LSP has been shaped by contributions from you, the public, and in order for the partnership to work effectively on priorities that you find important, it needs input by everyone in the community.

This is your district, your future.
