Stroud District Local Strategic Partnership (LSP) was established in March 2002 bringing together senior representatives from the public, private, voluntary and community sectors who have a diverse wealth of local knowledge and expertise. Its purpose is to improve the quality of life for local people by encouraging effective partnership between those people who can directly and indirectly bring about change.

Where keeping fit began:
http://www.thefitnessleague.com/ The Womens' League of Health & Beauty, as it was then known, was set up in the 1930s by Mrs Mary Bagot Stack. Her exercises are still valid, safe & practised today. There are classes in Stroud & Dursley, further afield and nationwide. Find out more from the organisation that started it all - and is still keeping women fit in the 21st Century! Classes in Stroud, Dursley, Wotton under Edge, Cheltenham.
