Overview
Welcome to the North Halifax Strategy 2024-2034
I am proud to share this strategy for North Halifax, shaped by our vision for Calderdale. A place where you can realise your potential whoever you are. Whether your voice has been heard or unheard in the past.
This strategy sets out strategic goals and high-level action. These have been co-developed with people living and working in North Halifax.
It draws on the insights of local organisations, private, public, voluntary and community and social enterprise sectors. They told us about their pride in North Halifax places and people. People who come together in times of need, who innovate and lead social action. People who aspire for a better North Halifax.
The strategy celebrates the community spirit that exists in North Halifax. This is while acknowledging some longstanding challenges. People’s health, wealth, and wellbeing has been particularly negatively impacted by the pandemic and the cost-of-living crisis.
Our commitment to reducing inequalities, creating thriving towns and communities is at the forefront of this plan. As well as addressing the climate emergency.
This is an exciting time to launch our strategy as we deliver economic regeneration in Calderdale. This is through an unprecedented level of investment. We are creating a place where people want to invest, live, work, visit and study.
Together we are determined that North Halifax benefits from public realm improvements. As well as actions that generate employment, social opportunities, and community wealth for all its residents.
