The Aberdeenshire Single Outcome Agreement shows the outcomes that partner organisations will work together to achieve for the communities of Aberdeenshire and how they will measure performance towards those.

In the 2012/13 Single Outcome Agreement, five key priorities were chosen for Aberdeenshire.  These are:

• Alcohol and Other Drugs
• Children Have the Best Start in Life
• Older People and Community Care
• Supporting Communities and Volunteering
• Transport 

 Aberdeenshire Community Planning Partnership had undertaken a strategic assessment process in order to develop the 2012/13 Aberdeenshire Single Outcome Agreement.  This provided an evidence-base to inform priority-setting and policy development processes.  It allowed our partner organisations to make informed decisions when setting priorities and enabled the Single Outcome Agreement to be streamlined to focus on a smaller number of key issues. 

Our community planning themes remain relevant and cover many other areas of work, including the priority areas.  The themes are Community Wellbeing, Jobs and the Economy, Lifelong Learning,
A Sustainable Environment, and Developing our Partnership.
