·         To attend (and usually take the role as chair) relevant working groups of the area board

·         To work collaboratively and cooperatively with relevant local partners, community groups, volunteers and outside bodies

·         To provide regular updates back to the area board in relation to their lead area, including providing feedback on the success or limitations of previously funded Area Board grants

·         To consider any funding applications diligently and democratically, ensuring due process is undertaken.

·         To in consultation with the local Councillor, monitor feedback for those grant applications that relate to the local priority the lead Councillor has responsibility for, ensuring that relevant feedback on progress and outcomes is provided to the Area Board
