Why do we consult?
Consultation and communication are key to the most effective and
efficient delivery of the Council’s vision, to deliver the best
customer focussed services and support to all communities.
Consultation is carried out by us (or on our behalf) in
order
- to find out what you think
- to identify your priorities and concerns
- to meet our statutory obligations
How do we consult?
We consult with communities and individuals using methods such
as surveys by post, phone and internet, focus groups
and workshops. Anorther method of collecting
information from residents is by using the Northumberland Peoples'
Panel, which is consulted up to four times a year.
What happens to the results?
They help the Council to understand what residents,
service-users and businesses think of the services we provide, and
help us understand our customers needs when planning changes, in
order to provide services that are targeted in the most
effective way.
