Council Plan 2022-2026

Summary

Ealing’s Council Plan 2022-26 sets our vision and strategy for the next four years and our ‘promises’ to focus on
the priorities of our residents, businesses, and other stakeholders. It is our high-level strategic response to the
opportunities and challenges facing us now and in the future.
This summary of the Council Plan presents our priorities and some of the actions we will be taking so that we deliver
on what matters most to all of these groups.
The full Council Plan can be viewed here along with our detailed four-year commitments and actions.

over the next four years to realise our vision for the borough:

Our Prorities
To meet the cross-cutting objectives, the plan also sets out the priority areas which are overseen by members of the
council’s cabinet ensuring a focus on delivery of the things that matter to residents. For each priority we set out the key
promises and activities which will be delivered over the next four years. One additional priority is set out which is to make
sure that the council is well-run and works with communities.
