Purpose

The Council has worked in partnership with residents and partners to co-produce a new 10-year strategic vision, called Our Tower Hamlets 2035.



This vision outlines what we want Tower Hamlets to be like by 2035, our shared ambitions, and how we will work together to achieve them.

Decision

1. Approves the Strategic Vision, Our Tower Hamlets 2025-2035, that is set out in Appendix 1 of the report submitted.
2. Notes the engagement with residents, partners, staff and elected members to develop the strategy as set out in Appendix 2 of the report submitted.
3. Notes the results of the equality screening as set out in paragraph 4.1 of the report submitted.
4. Notes the proposals for implementation, that is set out in Appendix 3 of the report submitted. 

Reasons for the decision

Having a new strategic vision will support the Council to strengthen relationships with local people and organisations and enable work together on shared ambitions.

The Council has committed to co-create a long-term strategic vision that reflects our shared ambitions for the borough in the Best Value Continuous Improvement Plan. 

Alternative options considered

The Council can decide not to adopt this new strategic vision. However, this this is not recommended as the Council has previously committed to agreeing and implementing a shared vision for the borough.
