Reply:
Belfast Area Partnerships (BAPs) is an informal forum of the five area Partnerships throughout Belfast(North, South, East, West and Greater Shankill).
The Chief Executive, Chairs and some staff of the five area Partnerships, meet at least monthly to share information and identify common action programmes across the whole city or between two or more of the area Partnerships working together.
The BAPs Co-ordinator is Claire Pollock funded by EU Building Sustainable Prosperity administered by the DSD Voluntary and Community Unit.
Current priority focus for the BAPs is on co-ordination of DSD's Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy activities and the Arterial Routes Strategy in association with Belfast City Council, BRO and the NIHE.
