What are your priorities?

We’re facing one of our most significant budget challenges in recent times, and need your input. With a budget gap of £27 million over the next five years, we’re asking residents to let us know what services should council budgets prioritise. 

As you may be aware, council services have delivered more than £50 million in savings in the last ten years and we continue to look for more savings in the years ahead. There is simply not enough funding to meet demands.

Thanks to everyone who has already given views in our budget survey. There’s still time to let us know what services you use the most.

The survey is available until 14 February. 

Thanks for your time.
