Lewisham’s vision
"Together, we will make Lewisham the best place in London to live, work and learn”
Our vision was developed following consultation with Lewisham residents, public sector agencies, local business, voluntary and community sector organisations. This vision is not just for the Council, it is also the vision of the Lewisham Strategic Partnership and is shared by all of Lewisham’s key public, private, voluntary and community sector organisations. The vision provides a common goal for all these organisations, allowing them to set priorities and deliver services that work together to improve the quality of life in Lewisham.
The key strategic document for Lewisham and for the Lewisham Strategic Partnership is Shaping our future – Lewisham’s Sustainable Community Strategy.
Sustainable Community Strategy priorities
Shaping our future contains the shared priorities for the borough. The Lewisham Strategic Partnership agreed a set of two principles and six priority outcomes which form the basis for concerted public action locally.
Lewisham’s Corporate priorities
The Council’s ten corporate priorities determine what contribution the Council will make towards delivery of the Community Strategy priorities. The priorities focus on the needs of local people and are geared towards ensuring that, in delivering services, the Council focuses on its citizens, is transparent and responds to changing needs and demands.
