Have your say on the Draft Digital Strategy 

This is the latest piece of Council wide work that is helping to shape the council for the future and builds on our People Strategy, work around Project Zero and the Financial Strategy.

This new draft Digital Strategy sets out an ambitious vision for the organisation to transform our approach to digital.

We will seek to work together and with the community in new ways to transform our services and embrace the potential that digital technology offers. 

Over one hundred colleagues took part in workshops earlier this year, which were facilitated by Socitm, to help shape the key vision and themes for this strategy.

The pace of change has accelerated in recent years, in particular because of the pandemic which revolutionised the way many of us work and interact. This was also a time of learning and investment, and this strategy seeks to build on our previous achievements and further transform our digital culture.

Our wide-ranging strategy sets out an ambitious vision for the organisation to transform our approach to digital.

We will seek to work together and with the community in new ways to transform our services and embrace the potential that digital technology offers.

Our digital vision is “Open to new ways of working together and with the community to enhance our services. Ambitious and proud to transform our digital culture in order to unlock our digital potential”.

The draft strategy consists of four themes:

  • Community and Involvement
  • Organisation and Processes
  • Digital People and Skills
  • Data and Insight


We are now seeking the views of all of our colleagues and partners on the contents of the draft strategy. We are in particular looking for views on the themes and actions that set out how the vision will be met.

A special Learning Cafe Question Time session will take place during the consultation period for colleagues to share their views in different ways. Please keep an eye out for a Learning Cafe email to book your place. 

The consultation will run until 8 September.
