Scottish Borders New Ways Compact

The Scottish Borders Compact underpins the work of New Ways.

This is an agreement between public sector agencies, including Scottish Borders Council, and voluntary bodies that sets out shared principles, values and commitments. It is designed to clearly state what each party can expect from the other.

The Compact is a shared commitment to build mutual trust and confidence and an appreciation of the roles and contributions of public and voluntary sector bodies towards the enhancement of the Scottish Borders. To this end it is a key part of the New Ways Community Planning process.

The Compact has been put together by representatives of public, voluntary and community bodies in the Scottish Borders. It will provide a platform for improved co-operation, understanding, and respect.

The Compact will be promoted and monitored by a Compact Officers Group comprising representatives from each partner agency through an action plan that will be allowed to develop as the Compact progresses.
