Dorset - A great place to live, work and visit

Welcome from Councillor Spencer Flower, Leader of Dorset Council

Our bold and ambitious Council Plan sets out our key priorities for the next two years, to 2024. It is our commitment to you, our residents, and our partners.

We have made huge progress since the council was created in 2019. Achievement of our initial objectives is something we are particularly proud of, at a time of huge challenge during the pandemic where we responded with compassion and resilience. 

This has given us a renewed sense of determination and ambition and I am optimistic that we can look back with pride having delivered our commitments. Democracy is
an important part of our society, and we will stand on our record of achievements. We have and will continue to work hard to fulfil the needs and aspirations of our communities.

Ward councillors play a key role in supporting their communities and ensuring that local voices are heard, and issues, both individual and community-wide, are dealt with in an effective and timely manner. Do keep them informed about local concerns which affect you and offer constructive challenge. By working together, we can continue to make Dorset a great place to live, work and visit.

The same can be said about the strong and productive partnerships we have established with key stakeholders, helping to create bold and ambitious relationships which deliver the best outcomes for the people of Dorset
