While our priorities focus on key areas for 2022-24, our big plans do not end there.
Our short-term vision is supported by medium and long-term plans to enable us to think
‘bigger and bolder’:
- short term – our priorities for 2022 to 2024
- medium term – our priorities for 2024 to 2029
- long term – our aspirations for 2029 and beyond
Our long-term vision will see us strengthen our work with our health partners to deliver the integrated care system ‘Our Dorset’. We have joined up to tackle health inequalities and all the things that affect health and wellbeing, to make real change, and improve things for our communities.
We have developed a transformation programme to improve services for residents. It focuses on:
- Being more commercial – Modernising the way we operate to ensure we are business friendly, to behave in a more business-like way and commission as one council.
- Putting our customers first – Working together to design and deliver modern, accessible services to our customers.
- Delivering climate and ecological priorities – Ensuring our change programme delivers in line with our climate and ecological strategy.
- Making the best use of our assets and leading economic growth – Reviewing the council buildings and properties to ensure best use and value of assets and help drive prosperity whilst adopting a focus on places and spaces.
- Implementing a digital, intelligent, data led approach – Using our data to help us predict demand and improve our prevention agenda.
- Working with the Integrated Care System – Working with partners to transform our care services by removing traditional divisions between services, and ensure people and communities get the support and care that they need.
