About the Council

Vision & Values

The Vision and Values that we have adopted underpin our drive for excellent customer services and improved and sustainable wellbeing. The Vision and Values set out below were arrived at after a series of workshops in 2005 involving over 600 members of staff.

The Council exists to secure and improve the wellbeing of all people in the district.

We are guided in this purpose, and in the actions and behaviours which flow from it, by a vision of the kind of organisation we need to be, and by an ethical and professional commitment to core values.

Our Vision

We aim to be an organisation which:

- works with citizens and other stakeholders to provide excellent  leadership for communities aimed at securing and improving the wellbeing of  all people within the district

- adds value to  our places and to people's quality of  life

- safeguards the interests of  citizens, children and communities, now and for  the future.

We want everyone who lives in the Bradford district and everyone who works for Bradford Council to be proud of their council and proud of their district.

Our core values

Our core values, upon which all Council activities are based, are:

Putting Customers First

Meeting the needs and aspirations of our customers is central to everything we do, and customer satisfaction is the ultimate measure of our success
