The H&F Plan - 2023 to 2026 - About this plan

Published: 15 December 2023

Our Corporate Plan contains our strategy to deliver the ambitions of the H&F Vision up to 2026. It sets out what we want to achieve for our residents and reaffirms the six values of the organisation that influences everything that we do.

It provides a comprehensive and cross-cutting set of ambitions for the organisation. It explains how we will transform our services and spend and invest money to help protect high quality essential services for our residents.

In all of the services we provide, we are looking to advance our values and support those residents who need it most. We want our services to be of the highest standard and inclusive and accessible to all, whilst ensuring that our resources are used effectively, compliantly with our responsibilities, and are supported by good governance.

To deliver our vision, we need to work together with all residents, businesses, communities, and our staff. We are fortunate enough to have a wealth of local diversity, knowledge, and experience, from grassroots community organisations to global corporations and in-house expertise. We want to harness the opportunities this brings to build alliances for change.

H&F has a proud history of being the country's leading borough for co-production, embedding its benefits across council services so that residents and our staff are fully involved at the earliest stage in shaping the services and decisions that affect their lives.

We were the first local authority in the country to commit to co-production across a whole council in this way.

Co-production with residents has shaped many of the strategies, initiatives, and services that have informed the priorities and actions in this plan and will continue to do so as we expand co-production across departments and services.

This plan does not cover every service or ambition that we have. Instead, this plan provides the golden thread on which the council's overarching budget, policy and governance framework is based, informing everything that is done across the council.
