Outcome 3: Work with communities to solve challenges
We will:
- communicate honestly and clearly with our communities, listen to our residents and give them a voice to shape the services and decisions that affect them
- empower communities to act for themselves
- work in partnership across the borough to tackle shared challenges together and deliver commitments
Our commitments
We commit to:
- resolve enquiries and problems faster so councillors can serve their communities more efficiency and with accountability
- get resident feedback and apply it to the work we do, and keep residents informed of how and why we make decisions
- understand our residents and adapt how we communicate and engage with them based on their needs
- understanding how residents feel about key issues across the borough
- strengthen young people's routes into council decision-making through the Greenwich Young People's Council and Young Advisors
- supporting voluntary, community and faith organisations through our new grants programme by continuing to fund the sector and investing in the infrastructure partners that make it more resilient
