Corporate Strategy 2024-2036

Our Corporate Strategy 2024-2036 sets out the long term aims and objectives of Melton Borough Council for the next 12 years.

The strategy informs our plans, policies and the services we deliver to our community. 

Our communities are at the heart of everything we do, and this strategy has been developed using feedback from our residents, partners and stakeholders, ensuring we deliver services and tackle issues that are most important to all our communities across our rural borough

Our Vision '36

By 2036, we want Melton to have:

  • A new, single, custom-built leisure centre and swimming pool fit for the next generation, supported by wider recreation and physical activity facilities across the borough.  

  • Greater access to healthcare services, increasing the availability of primary care, and to meet the needs of a growing population and encourage activities to improve people’s health.

  • More sustainable homes, that meet the needs of our communities, supported by the right infrastructure and facilities, including the Melton Mowbray Distributor Road (MMDR) and adequate school places. 

  • High quality homes, across all tenures, supported by accountable and enabling landlord services.
  • A bustling, vibrant and regenerated town centre, recognised as a regional destination, and supported by a thriving tourism sector.

  • Cherish and celebrate our villages and rural heritage, delivering on the Rural Capital of Food and maximising investment in our waterways, canals, walkways and green infrastructure. 

  • Harnessed new technologies, diversifying our business base, and securing more high skilled, higher paying jobs, creating a brighter future for young people.

  • Be recognised as clean, green, and attractive; well on our way to becoming a net zero borough.
