Worcestershire County local economy survey

Online survey

Worcestershire County Council has a new Corporate Plan, Worcestershire Fit for the Future which was adopted by the council in June 2011. Within this plan there are four key areas of focus; Open for Business, Children and Families, The Environment, Health and Wellbeing.

This autumn the council is particularly looking to gather feedback on "Open for Business". As the council works to achieve its aims in this area it is important to understand what residents see as the top priorities to help recovery and growth in the local economy.

We are also asking businesses these questions and will be using other channels to gather views from across all our communities. If you would like to comment in more detail about Open for Business or any other aspect of Worcestershire Fit for the Future why not come along to one of our Have Your Say Roadshows this autumn? Full details can be found on our website (www.worcestershire.gov.uk) or in the local press.

Whilst many people we work with lead happy, successful lives, others tell us that their appearance has a negative impact on their lives.
