Putting People First
Putting People First is about providing quality services and promoting health, prosperity and community safety
On average, satisfaction with local government in 2006, measured across the country, went down slightly. In Wealden, between 2003 and 2006, satisfaction with a number of our services increased.
We have the highest general satisfaction rating in East Sussex and remain above the national average. One thing is clear – the more people know about the services that councils provide, the more they value them. Our challenge is to respond to these rising expectations using our limited resources to achieve the best for Wealden.
Putting People First is, however, more than just letting people know what we are doing on their behalf. It is encouraging people to have their say, involving them in how services are provided by us and others, and understanding their priorities for health and well-being.
Our priorities underpinning Putting People First are:
- Providing Quality Services
- Health, Prosperity and Community Safety
Please take a look at our Corporate Plan to learn more about these priorities.
