Overview
What is One Coventry?
Our One Coventry approach helps to shape the way the Council works with its partners to improve the city and improve people’s lives. It includes the Council’s vision and priorities, new ways of working, and core areas of activity to deliver the One Coventry Plan objectives, key strategies, and approaches.
The current plan sets out our vision to be:
Globally connected
Promoting the growth of a sustainable Coventry economy by:
• supporting businesses to grow;
• developing the city centre;
• creating infrastructure for the city to thrive; and
• raising the profile of Coventry.
And ensure that residents share in the benefits by:
• helping local people into jobs;
• increasing the supply, choice, and quality of housing;
• reducing the impact of poverty; and
• increasing access to arts, sports, and cultural opportunities.
Locally committed
Improving the quality of life for Coventry people by:
• creating an attractive, cleaner, and greener city;
• improving educational outcomes;
• making communities safer; and
• improving health and wellbeing.
Especially for our most vulnerable residents by:
• protecting our most vulnerable people; and
• reducing health inequalities.
Delivering our priorities with fewer resources
Making the most of our assets and work closer with partners and residents to enable people to do more for themselves.
