Have your say! - Gatefield Community Woodland Consultation

Torridge District Council has announced proposals to establish a community woodland, at Gatefield amenity grassland on the Londonderry Estate in Bideford.

Strategic plan

The Strategic Plan sets out the vision and ambitions Torridge District Council aspire to achieve over the coming years. Whilst it highlights a date of 2024 - 2029 much of where we want to be goes far beyond that period and this plan aims to set Torridge on the path to deliver a long term vision.

Chess

The Strategic Plan is centred around 4 themes:

  • Local Economy
  • Communities, Health and Housing
  • Our Environment, Our Future
  • Our Council

Behind each of these themes are actions that we as a Council are setting our sights on achieving.  They are ambitious, challenging and we recognise cannot all be achieved on our own, which means we must work with our partners and develop new partnerships with those who share our vision.

Torridge - a great place to live, work and visit

The Strategic Plan sets out the vision and ambitions that Torridge District Council aspires to achieve over the next five years. The plan has been subject to a six-week public consultation where comments were invited from residents, town and parish councils and other interested groups and organisations. The Strategic Plan, along with all the comments received, was then reviewed by councillors and the Strategic Plan was adopted by the Full Council in December 2023.

The main priorities below are actioned by us and in partnership. The actions are reported in the Quarterly Business Reports and analysed by the Internal Overview and Scrutiny Committee. These actions inform the Service Business Plans and are presented to and monitored by Senior Managers and councillors at the Council.
