12. Working with external partners Opportunity: –SCSP provided a mechanism to ‘push’ for investment in West Lothian by Abellio Scotrail –Has led to other joint working projects and helped lever SEStran and Community Links funding Challenge: –Keeping track of external investment, uncertainty and revising programme to following the investment

13. Contingency planning

14. Learning outcomes? Depending on external partners for ‘match’ can be a risk, but also an opportunity and levers ‘commitment’ Partnerships and relationships, no matter how small = seeds of success Risk assessment and contingency planning – crucial from the start and throughout
