The NHS should play a strong role in supporting other partners and networks, particularly with third sector organisations that deliver health and well-being services, and help them to intergrate sustainability throughout their work. Other NHS based networks should also aim to share best practice in support of sustainable communities.
Local Strategic Partnerships provide a single overarching local coordination framework for local partnerships to operate. Every NHS organisation has a role to play in influencing and leading on carbon reduction within this framework. The LSP is responsible for developing and driving the implementation of the Local Area Agreement (LAA).
