Like all aspects of Objective One, the main focus of the IAP is economic and the strategy concentrates on business support, diversification for agriculture, horticulture and community enterprise. The programme has a substantial commitment to skills and training and to fostering social inclusion. There are also many elements of the plan which link into tourism, heritage and the environment.

Caradon IAP is operated by a team of three people, who provide a facilitation, advice and project development service, which is free to the client. The IAP works with all sectors including food and craft, small businesses, training and skills, farmers and horticulturists, tourism, and community groups.

Caradon IAP is part of Caradon District Council and is controlled by the local community through a Local Development Group (LDG). Representing the interests of the local community, the LDG decides whether specific projects are suitable for inclusion within the local strategy and recommends any changes, which may be necessary. All community groups with an active interest in regeneration and based in the Caradon District, have a right to one voting seat on the LDG.

Please note that the Bodmin Moor and Camelford IAP no longer exists and the parishes it covered are now covered by the new North Cornwall IAP and the new Caradon IAP. The original aims and objectives of the Bodmin Moor and Camelford IAP can be found for information purposes by clicking here.
