Colchester - a place for people: a place where people want to be

There is a shared ambition for Colchester to develop as a prestigious regional centre. A place where people, families, their communities and businesses thrive; where everyone has the opportunity to achieve their full potential:
  • a centre of excellence and innovation for culture, education and learning, recognised regionally, nationally and internationally
  • a preferred destination for visitors, for business location and for investment
  • a place with a high quality environment, where people will continue to enjoy high levels of health and well-being, with modern health and social care services for those who need them

We will help achieve this by:
  • developing, supporting and enabling a wide range of sporting, recreational, cultural, social, educational and tourism opportunities which enhance the quality of life, promote healthy, active lifestyles for people in the Borough and, by stimulating attractions for visitors and by helping to create a positive business environment, bring jobs and investment to the local economy
  • managing Colchester’s rich and diverse landscapes, parks and green spaces and promote policies and activities that enhance and protect Colchester’s built and natural features, surrounding countryside and unique heritage.

Colchester’s ‘Cultural Strategy’ is a key strand of the Community Strategy developed by the Local Strategic Partnership Colchester 2020. The Cultural Strategy shows how these ambitions can be achieved.
