Welcome to the Basingstoke Area Strategic Partnership

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 us a chance to share information and resources and achieve more than we could do on our own.

The Community Strategy sets out the vision for the borough and the key outcomes that partners are working towards.

Focussing on the future – the borough in 2026

A vision for the borough has been developed through extensive consultation and agreed to inform our strategic planning. It sets out the ambitions for the borough and its communities to 2026. For more information  - click here

This vision will guide the review of the Sustainable Community Strategy, and inform the preparation of the landuse blueprint for the borough - the Core Strategy of the Local Development Framework ( LDF). For more information on the LDF - click here.
