The Calderdale Forward Board acts as the policy development and decision-making body of the Local Strategic Partnership, and is made up of 29 voting representatives from the public, private, voluntary and community sectors. The Board’s core tasks are to set an overall strategic vision for the District, and to promote effective strategic planning and partnership work. It has overall responsibility for the development of the Futures Plan (Calderdale’s Community Strategy) and the Local Area Agreement. The Calderdale Forward Board also holds the Calderdale Forward Delivery Group to account.
