Our Vision and Priorities
Our Vision
Trafford – where all our residents, businesses and communities thrive.
At Trafford we are all driven by a clear purpose, we want to make Trafford a place “where all our residents, communities and businesses thrive." Whatever role you do within the Council we believe that every single one of our people has an instrumental part to play in helping us to make our vision a reality. Our vision is about giving people in Trafford greater choice about where they live; to build and sustain thriving communities; and to develop areas which we can all take pride in. At the heart of our vision is a common cause – we want to make Trafford a better borough. We want to make it a place where everyone has a chance to succeed and where everybody has a voice.
We want Trafford to be a place where all our residents, businesses and communities thrive.
Our Corporate Plan explains how we will achieve our vision and work together to deliver for all of our residents, communities and businesses.
Our Priorities
The best start for our children and young people
Our children and families deserve the best support from the very start and that support should be there throughout people’s lives when needed. We want our children and young people to receive the best possible education and get the support they need to achieve and thrive.
Healthy and independent lives for Everyone
We will work with people, communities and partners, particularly in deprived areas, to improve the physical and mental health of all our residents.
A thriving economy and homes for all
Our ongoing town centre regenerations show our commitment to creating a thriving economy. We also need to make sure our borough is fit for the future. That means building homes so our children and families can remain in the borough. We want Trafford residents to have great access to employment and to live in good quality housing. We want our businesses to thrive.
Addressing the climate crises
Addressing the climate crisis remains a priority and we will work with local businesses to reduce our carbon footprint. We want to play our part in reducing our carbon footprint and address the impact of climate change in Trafford.
Culture, Sport and Heritage for everyone
We want to harness the amazing talent we have in Trafford. Our culture is something we should be proud of and we want to be able to share that with everyone. We want to promote our fantastic cultural and sporting heritage, developing opportunities for all.
