To receive and consider the Draft Community Engagement Strategy.

The Committee received and considered the draft Community Engagement Strategy from the Communications & Community Engagement Officer which outlined how it would work to enhance the quality and effectiveness of its communications.

Members were pleased to see the engagement already taking place amalgamated into one document and made suggestions for improvements which included, greater focus on young people, consulting with care homes to ensure they were communicated with and adding additional noticeboards in locations where people linger such as the skatepark and the new Coffee shed on the Leys. Additionally providing information so that other groups communications such as the Scouts Online Scout Manager system and school newsletters could be utilised.

The Committee looked forward to seeing a fully drafted version when ready for consideration and adoption.

Resolved:

That, the draft version of the Community Engagement Strategy be noted.
