Neighbourhood charter

A neighbourhood (or local) charter is a voluntary partnership agreement between a community, the local authority and other service providers. It describes the service standards which local people expect from the local authority and other agencies, as well as commitments from service providers, local groups and residents themselves to help meet local community priorities.
