The council faces significant challenges, including the need to reduce spending by £100 million over the next four years. This requires substantial change and transformation capacity.
Successful delivery of this plan will lead to a financially stable organisation with improved outcomes for residents.
6 programme areas
The council has developed six programmes and identified projects within them to address challenges. The first tranche will be completed by December 2024.
The six programme areas outline financial benefits of between £59m-£91m with an additional £14m from digital projects. These focus on:
- Workforce: including looking at how the organisation will operate in future;
- Social care: considering how the council supports children and adults who have the highest need for social care services;
- Place: seeking to transform the council’s approach to improving our local economy, maximising the council’s assets and reviewing its approach to some place-based services, such as exploring automatic number plate recognition enforcement;
- Early intervention: prevention and customer: supporting residents to become more resilient, self-sufficient and avoid crisis, alongside managing long-term demand for services;
- Digital: delivering digital projects that will benefit the council and residents through technology; and
- Special projects: projects linked to the financial and strategic objectives of the council.
