Southend residents are being asked what they want from their city in a bid to shape its future.
A survey has been devised by the Southend City Partnership for everyone who lives, works, visits, studies or runs a business or organisation in the city.
Feedback will be used to create a ‘city vision’ to help shape key strategies and values over the next 10 years.
Tara Poore, chief executive of City Family CIC and chair of the Southend City Partnership, said: “This consultation is a unique opportunity for everyone in Southend to have their say in shaping our city’s future. Your input will help us create a vision that truly reflects the aspirations of our diverse and vibrant community.”
Cllr Daniel Cowan, leader of Southend-on-Sea City Council, said: “I urge people to get involved with this important piece of partnership work and help us to create an inspiring vision for the future of our city.”
Colin Ansell, chief executive of the council and Co-Chair of the Southend City Partnership, added: “We are committed to ensuring that this vision is inclusive and forward-looking. I encourage everyone to participate, whether online, at one of our events, or through your local networks. Together, we can ensure Southend is a thriving coastal city that we are all proud to be part of.”
