Oldham New Deal for Communities
All 5 Neighbourhood Agreements go live
Over the past 3 years NDC, partners and residents have led the way in the development and delivery of Neighbourhood Agreements. We have shown that they are a tool for neighbourhood management and can be adapted to suit any problem or issue that a community may have. We have proved this by leading the way on the Crime and Health agreements and have even used this principle to help our community engage more in local politics.
We now have a strong team of residents who work to develop, sustain and monitor the 5 Agreements. They have been visiting different parts of the country to offer support and advice to Councils and local residents who want to embark on the same journey.
Developing Neighbourhood Agreements is hard work, but if developed with full resident involvement it can help to link services and residents together and help to promote local decision making and fruitful partnership working
If you would like to discuss further or you are interested in meeting the TNT (the resident group) or want support in persuading your key service providers to take your agreements forward please ring Maxine Moar on 0161 621.3900

Hathershaw and Fitton Hill NDC
New Deal for Communities in Hathershaw & Fitton Hill is one of 39 programmes across the country.
The Government has funded the programme to regenerate the area with £53m. The Programme started in 2001 and will continue until 2011. It is a resident-led regeneration programme and is governed by a Management Board which consists of residents, key agencies and partners.
The vision for the New Deal for Communities Programme in Hathershaw & Fitton Hill is;
Hathershaw & Fitton Hill will be a place where people choose to live and work, with a community to which they are proud to belong.
Over the past four years the Programme has undergone a process of change and has recently been restructured into six key themes. These are:
- Education and Lifelong Learning
- Housing and the Environment
