Our membership consists of officers from across all of Norfolk’s 8 local authorities, Norfolk & Waveney Integrated Care System, the Broads Authority, the New Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership, the Norfolk Strategic Planning Framework Forum, the Greater South-East NetZero Hub and the East of England Local Government Association.

Co-chaired by Lore Gore, Chief Executive for the Borough Council of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk and Steve Blatch, Chief Executive of North Norfolk District Council, the partnership reports to the Norfolk’s Chief Executives Group and the Norfolk Public Sector Leaders Board.

We also look to involve and work with other organisations from across Norfolk and the UK, whether that be for specialist advice, or for updates on ongoing climate change work. Such organisations have previously included the Forestry Commission and the University of East Anglia.
