Vision 2026

Gedling Partnership will continue to work together with other organisations across Nottinghamshire to achieve the Vision of Gedling Boroughin 2026:

“Gedling Borough – the part of Nottinghamshire where people want to live, work and do business”

A place of safe and strong communities

A friendly place where people make a positive contribution to and feel part of their local community, respect and support each other and take responsibility for their own actions.  Where they feel safe in their homes and on the streets at any time of the day and night.

A place where people are treated fairly and have the opportunity to get involved

A place where everybody has an equal chance to realise their potential and enjoy the lifestyle they want. Where the needs of the villages and suburban neighbourhoods with regard to public transport, local jobs, access to services and housing are met. Where people can be confident that the organisations on which they rely for essential services will meet their needs and respond to their preferences when designing and delivering those services.

A place where we take care of our environment

A place that achieves a balance between the natural and built environment and makes people feel good about their surroundings. A place with clean streets, well maintained open spaces and well managed countryside, where we take steps to preserve the environment for present and future generations. A place where there is a variety of distinctive and attractive buildings, that are of high quality and reflect the character of the local area.

A place where people can lead a healthy and active lifestyle

A place where people have the opportunity to enjoy a healthy lifestyle. A place where people can be physically and socially active, have a good range of accessible health, recreational and leisure facilities and where there is a balanced mix of decent housing meeting the needs of the population.

A place that contributes to a vibrant and prosperous Greater Nottingham

A place that attracts investment, to create a variety of convenient facilities for essential services and shopping, cultural and social activities and also to provide business opportunities and local jobs. A place where people of all ages can have access to good quality education and training in order to gain the skills which will give them the best possible employment prospects and to support the economy of Greater Nottingham.
