Big 50 Ambitions

So, What’s in It for You?

A Better Place to Live

BIG50 is all about creating a place where clean, green spaces are protected, town centres are revitalised, and communities feel safe and connected. We want to ensure that our Parks, public spaces, and local heritage is valued and preserved for future generations.

More Opportunities for Work and Skills

Whether you’re just starting out or looking to retrain, BIG50 is focused on boosting job prospects and skills development. With strong partnerships between local colleges, employers, and training providers, you’ll have more chances to grow your career—right here at home.

Support for Young People

From early years to employment, BIG50 is committed to helping children and young people succeed. That means better access to education, apprenticeships, and mentoring—so the next generation can build a bright future without needing to move away.

Healthier, Happier Communities

BIG50 brings together health services, the council, and community and voluntary groups to improve wellbeing and access to care. Whether it’s mental health support, active lifestyle initiatives, or better transport to services, your health is a priority.

A Greener Future

BIG50 supports sustainable growth—encouraging green industries, reducing emissions, and making it easier to live in environmentally friendly ways. That means cleaner air, better transport options, and a future-proofed local economy.

Your Ideas, our Shared Vision

This isn’t a top-down plan. BIG50 is being shaped by local voices—residents, businesses, schools, and community groups. You’ll have opportunities to get involved, share your ideas, and help shape the future of the place you call home.
