Summary

Advert

A Place to Grow is the new Community Planning vision for East Renfrewshire which sets out our shared hopes and aspirations between now and 2040 so that East Renfrewshire is a place where everyone can flourish, thrive and grow. This vision provides a clear direction of travel over the next 15 years and is built on three pillars that will be the foundation for all strategic planning going forward.

By 2040:

  • Our children and young people flourish: Every child and young person, regardless of background or circumstance, will fully flourish on their journey to adulthood.
  • Our communities and places thrive: We will be an inclusive, connected and green place, with a fair, sustainable and healthy local economy, that our residents are proud to call home.
  • We all live well: Everyone can live well at all stages of life and communities will be taking the lead in driving change for good health and wellbeing.
