We want Calderdale to be a place where everyone thrives, in vibrant communities, where businesses can grow, residents live fulfilled lives and feel supported, and our environment is protected.
We have four Council priorities to achieve this:
These priorities are part of the wider Vision for Calderdale. The Vision 2024 has united the Council, partner organisations and communities with a shared aspiration for the place since 2018. It is now being refreshed to jointly create the Vision 2034 for Calderdale.
Since 2022, we have been hearing from people from a wide range of communities across Calderdale about the best things in the borough and the type of place they would like it to be in the future. We have gathered many stories and have used these to shape the Vision 2034 for Calderdale:
“In 2034, Calderdale will be an enterprising place, full of opportunity, where we can all live a larger life."
"We will always be kind and welcoming. Everyone will have reason to be full of hope and this will enable us to thrive and get us through testing times."
"We will be celebrated for our distinctive heritage, nature and creativity that everyone can enjoy."
