Corporate Plan consultation

Bedford Borough Council has produced a draft Corporate Plan for public consultation and we would welcome your feedback.  

Draft Corporate Plan 2024-2027

The draft Corporate Plan for 2024-2027 serves as the blueprint to guide all our actions at Bedford Borough Council. It involves redefining our vision, reassessing our priorities, and collaborating with staff, residents, partners, communities, and businesses to lead Bedford Borough confidently into the future.

The consultation will run from 18 March 2024. All comments must reach the Council by 5pm on 28 June 2024.
