- Great neighbourhoods that people are happy to call home.
- People live in caring, engaged communities that value diversity and support wellbeing.
- A creative and prosperous city full of culture, learning and innovation.
- A city on the move – growing, connected and sustainable.

Hide AdA report to the council’s strategy and resources committee called it an ambitious four-year Council Plan for Sheffield City Council following public consultation.
“The new plan sets out a clear mission statement for the organisation – ‘together we get things done’ – and five strategic outcomes for the organisation,” it said.
The introduction to the plan says: “The new plan means that citizens, city partners and investors will know where the Council is headed, what it stands for and give even more opportunity to hold the organisation to account.”
It is linked to the City Goals project (https://sheffieldcitygoals.uk/) that also aims to drive forward a vision for the future of the city. That has involved speaking to more than 1,500 Sheffielders and working with a range of city organisations.
