Background During 2021 we have been working closely with our community to develop a new Community Vision and a new Public Health and Wellbeing Plan. To view the details of the Public Health and Wellbeing Plan project, please click here.
Council adopted the Public Health and Wellbeing Plan 2021-25 on 25 October 2021. A designed version will be coming soon - you can view the Plan using the link above or view it in the Documents section of this page.
The Public Health and Wellbeing Plan 2021–2025 has identified five priority areas (Goals) and a number of health and wellbeing issues we will address, with our key partners.
We are developing six Plans that will provide more detail about specific actions for 2021-2025:
Disability Action Plan
Safe and Secure Action Plan
Healthy and Well Action Plan
Positive Ageing Action Plan
Multicultural Action Plan
Prevention of Family Violence Action Plan.
The Action Plans are cross-Council plans that involve collaboration with a range of different Council teams and community partners. If you are interested in the previous Action Plans, you can view them in the Documents section of this page.
Consultation with the Kingston community is now closed.
We will be talking with local health and wellbeing organisations in January-February 2022.
