Highland Community Planning Partnership

The Highland Community Planning Partnership (HCPP) brings together public sector bodies, third sector organisations, other key groups and agencies to work collaboratively to tackle inequalities across Highland.  By working together, the Partnership aims to identify priorities and share resources to improve the lives of residents and the services they receive across Highland. 

The HCPP works towards the Highland Outcome Improvement Plan (HOIP), which outlines aspirations for Highland and the outcomes community planning partners aim to achieve. The HOIP’s vision is to maximise opportunities and tackle inequality, building a thriving Highlands for all. The vision is driven by three strategic priorities: People; Place; Prosperity.

 The revised 2024 -2027 HOIP is available to download here.  Further information on the HCPP can be found on the About HCPP page.
