Resources for Neighbourhood Renewal Partnerships
In order to review their action plans Neighbourhood Renewal Partnerships need access to documents which set out the key principles that underpin their roles and responsibilities. They also require an evidence base which helps them establish and identify needs and priorities in their areas.

Action plan review guidance
Guidance on the Review of Neighbourhood Action Plans provides Neighbourhood Renewal Partnerships with policy direction and best practice on how to carry out an Action Plan Review in order to ensure that they continue to meet the priority needs of their areas.
Code of practice
The Neighbourhood Renewal Partnership Code of Practice and Guiding Principles sets out the key principles which will underpin the roles and responsibilities of those involved through the partnerships in the delivery of Neighbourhood Renewal, to ensure the effective use of public funds.
As detailed within the Code of Practice each Partnership may establish a number of Sub Groups which should be developed around the four strategic objectives of the Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy. The Neighbourhood Renewal Partnership Sub Group Terms of Reference sets out the roles and responsibilities of those Neighbourhood Renewal Sub Groups.
The Neighbourhood Renewal Material Consideration Memo provides additional information on how compliance with the code of practice is to be a material consideration in the Department’s appraisal of project applications.
The Neighbourhood Renewal Membership of Partnerships and Effective Linkages Memo provides additional information on:
- appointments to Partnerships by open, transparent and inclusive means

The Neighbourhood Renewal Clarification of Faith Based Memo details the definition of Faith Based organisations for the purpose of Neighbourhood Renewal.
