Community Justice Ayrshire Partnership Governance
The Community Justice Ayrshire Partnership Leadership Group provides an annual update to each of the three Ayrshire Community Planning Partnership Boards.
A revised structure for the Community Justice Ayrshire Partnership was developed following a review of the operating arrangements in 2025. The revised structure aims to:
- Build on existing success and ensure that those who have a stake in community justice feel part of our partnership
- Improve links with other strategic groups relating to community justice, through better alignment within Community Planning arrangements
- Retain a Pan-Ayrshire approach, whilst enabling specific local issues to be addressed in a more targeted way
- Allow for better accountability / reporting of outcomes and oversight of the work of the Partnership by the Leadership Group and each Statutory Partner
Community Justice Delivery Groups
Three Community Justice Delivery Groups have been established to support the work of the Community Justice Ayrshire Partnership Leadership Group. A Diversion, Intervention and Alternatives to Custody Delivery Group, a Community Reintegration Delivery Group and a Community First Delivery Group. All the groups report into and are directed and overseen by the Community Justice Ayrshire Leadership Group.
Whilst the Community Justice Delivery Groups will connect with each Community Planning Partnerships local arrangements, it is recognised that community justice is a cross-cutting issue, and they will therefore also proactively link with other community planning priorities and groups.
