Basingstoke Area Strategic Partnership Board
The Basingstoke Area Strategic Partnership is a voluntary partnership. It brings together different sectors to focus on local issues in a strategic and co-ordinated way. The BASP is a joint venture with all partners working to the same overall aim of improving the quality of life to the benefit of everyone living and working in the borough of Basingstoke and Deane. The BASP acts as a strategic body that focuses on current strategic issues and on future challenges; the individual partners carry out the work of delivering the agreed key priorities. Working in partnership provides an opportunity for networking and helps organisations to come up with solutions together. Working together gives them a chance to share information and resources and achieve more than we could do on our own.

Hampshire Economic Partnership (HEP) The HEP brings together business, local government and regional agencies to influence government policy and to support the economic prosperity of Hampshire and its cities. Its aims are to identify and champion the needs and priorities of Hampshire business; to provide an authoritative economic voice for business and to ensure that the best decisions are made for the sustainable economic prosperity of the area. Website: http://www.hep.uk.com/ Hampshire Senate The Hampshire Senate is a voluntary partnership made up of the County Council leader, leaders of all 11 district councils, the Chairmen of Hampshire Police and Fire Authorities, and the Hampshire Primary Care Trust along with the Chairman of the Hampshire Association of Local Councils and representatives of the Hampshire Economic Partnership, Hampshire Strategic Partnership, Voluntary and Community Sector, the Regional Development Agency and the Armed Forces. The idea of the Senate is as an overarching 'Hampshire partnership' extending the voluntary collaboration already taking place in many areas. The development of such a partnership is another logical step in that direction, which offers the opportunity to rationalise some of the existing partnership arrangements. Far from being another tier of government, as some have suggested, this new arrangement potentially has the ability to reduce the bureaucracy and the cost around many fragmented central government initiatives and enhance the collaboration between elected and non elected bodies which deliver public services in Hampshire.

The quality of life for residents in these areas, particularly where they are located immediately adjacent to affluent areas, is often poor by comparison.
