Our Vision
Our focus is to constantly improve the quality of life of local people by providing a safe, clean and attractive place for residents to live and work, and encourage people to engage in developing strong communities as set out in our Corporate Plan.
Health in All We Do
We have committed to take a 'Health in All We Do' approach with our partners to ensure that the health of local people is paramount in everything we do.
Our Wellbeing, Housing and Environmental services work closely together and through partnership work with other organisations to utilise local assets and to develop more efficient and effective services for communities to access.
We support and promote a number of projects to provide ways for local people to get involved in building a better community, to participate in a more active lifestyle and to connect with other local people or service providers.
Community Development
We focus on community development, the process of community members coming together to take collective action and generate solutions to common problems that face our residents and the communities in which they live.
Our Litter Campaign (Keep it Clean)
We work with community groups to organise litter picks that can help keep the Borough clean.

Suicide Prevention
#TalkSuicide is a campaign developed by Staffordshire County Council, Stoke on Trent City Council, local hospitals and NHS community services.
We’re working together to help prevent suicide by:
- Making it easier for people to talk about suicide.
- Increasing awareness about the myths, facts and stats around suicide.
- Giving local people easy access to online suicide prevention training for free.
- Empowering individuals, communities, organisations and businesses to show their support and take action to help prevent suicide.
