Oldham's public service board (PSB)

Background

We have a very strong and effective partnership in Oldham and we have achieved a great deal. However, despite this there is still a big gap between the quality of people's lives in some areas of Oldham and others, and between Oldham and the rest of England. We need to work together to improve Oldham, and we need to make these improvements at an even faster rate.

The PSB provides strong cross-Oldham leadership for this. It enables the council and the partnership to work closely together and take responsibility for the future of Oldham.

The PSB complements the Oldham Partnership executive and steering group as it helps to remove any difficulties we may be having in delivering our aims.
