Consultation
19th March - 20th April 2012

Over the last 6 months, we have been carrying out a review in order to find out how effective we have been during 2010 / 2011 in providing and improving both our Adult and Children’s Social Services. Following this period of review, the Director of Community Services has produced a draft report that details:

• How good we believe we are in meeting the needs of the community (based on the evidence we have gathered);
• Our key strengths and achievements;
• Progress made against the key priorities for improvement identified in last years Report (2010 / 2011), and;
• Additional key priorities in order to ensure continued improvement.

What is the consultation about and how can I get involved?

Before the Director can complete the final report, we wish to consult with our citizens, staff, partner organisations and other interested parties, in order to find out whether you are in agreement with the content of the report. 

You can view the report via our website at ARCF

Once you have had an opportunity to read the report, we would very much like to know what you think.  You can do this by completing the on-line questionnaire. Alternatively, you can request a printed copy of either of these documents by contacting us on 01685 724693 or 727034.

These documents will be made available in other languages and formats upon request.

What happens next?

The period of consultation will take place between 19th March and 20th April 2012. Following this, all feedback received will be carefully considered and used to inform the final report.  This will be publically available by August 2012.

If you have any queries regarding the consultation process please contact us on (01685) 724693 or 727034.
