Help us to shape our future

Thursday, 16 November 2023 17:27

Cheshire East Council are inviting residents to help shape the future, together, as part of their work to develop a new strategic plan for the borough.

The new plan is being developed for a number of reasons including:

The significant number of new elected members following the elections in May and a need to reflect post-election priorities
The changing context in which the council is now operating with regards to the financial challenge caused by factors such as rising inflation
A greater need to focus our resources to meet increased service demands and costs
Advances in digital technology and artificial intelligence which we need to understand and use safely and securely to drive efficient service delivery

There is an urgent need to prioritise and target service delivery to areas that need them the most.

Please do take the time to have your say:
