Introduction
Supporting the wellbeing of the communities we serve is fundamental to our mission as a council. It is the reason we strive to continually improve services.
It is a foundation to people’s experience of living in the district and their long-term health outcomes.
Background and context
Based upon a needs analysis carried out in 2022, this strategy captures the ways in which Cherwell District Council will work with partners to improve the wellbeing of our residents. We want to see as many people as possible who are struggling, languishing, or just about managing, start thriving instead.

Monitoring and reporting progress
The goals and commitments for this framework are set every four years
Sitting beneath this framework will be distinct action plans covering our commitments outlined under these 7 goals. These will reflect the diverse ways in which we are working to improve wellbeing in the district and using our limited resources to maximum effect by proactively seeking funding and combining our funds with others to increase impact and sustainability.
The actions plan will include indicators to help us measure progress against our goals.
Implementation will be overseen by the Executive and reporting will align with business monitoring. We will engage in the development of our action plans each year and will produce an annual report to outline our progress. We will seek feedback on how others see and experience our progress as part the annual reporting process. We will seek to present the annual report and promote our activity.
Thank you to all the partners who supported us in the development of Everybody’s Wellbeing.
