Council
Community plan
The Tower Hamlets Partnership has refreshed its Community Plan through to 2020. It is based on consultation with local people, businesses, third sector and statutory organisations about their hopes and aspirations for the borough, as well as research and information about the way our borough is changing.
The Community Plan keeps the existing vision 'to improve the quality of life for everyone living and working in Tower Hamlets’. It sets out the challenges and priorities for the borough through to 2020, as well as the specific targets – drawn from the Local Area Agreement – that we will focus on until 2011.
The Community Plan 2020 has been agreed by the Council and the Tower hamlets Partnership and will be launched in 2009. We will be producing the final Community Plan for the launch but the final text version is available to download here.

At the heart of the new Community Plan is the idea of One Tower Hamlets. This is all about trying to reduce the inequalities that exist in the borough and bringing local communities closer together and it runs throughout the Plan.
The borough’s new priorities have been developed under 4 new themes:
- A Great Place to Live - including housing, transport and waste
- A Prosperous Community – covering learning, worklessness and enterprise
- A Safe and Supportive Community – bringing together support for the most vulnerable residents with community safety issues
- A Healthy Community – including public health, access to primary care and mental health
