Sustainability

Sustainability is broadly defined as ensuring that the needs of present generations are met in a way that doesn’t damage the ability for future generations to meet their needs. It is therefore about improving the long-term wellbeing of the area without storing up problems for the future, ensuring a better quality of life for everyone, now and for generations to come.

We have a key role to play in helping to deliver a more sustainable city, as an employer with responsibility for staff and buildings, as a provider of local services, and as a community leader working in partnership with other organisations and local communities.
