Policies

Hold council meetings in towns around the district at least once in each so people can see councillors face to face.

Hold regular public meetings in the council chamber where anyone can ask questions and have a say.

Re-establish mayoral coffee mornings where people can talk to the mayor and ward councillors in an informal setting.

Implement better, more direct forms of democracy utilising modern technology including mobile phone for instant consultations, for example the Antenno app.

Improve statistical analysis of survey data to achieve a more representative picture due to current practices not working well.

Conduct more direct outreach to schools to improve understanding of democracy and civics education.
