Your East Riding...
Where everyone mattersA new vision for the council is being rolled out over the coming weeks. The new vision reflects the challenges and opportunities the council faces both now and in the future.

The council priorities show how we will achieve the vision of Your East Riding... where everyone matters. Although the current priorities were still appropriate, it was agreed they needed to reflect the importance of children and young people.

Valuing the environment
Responding to climate change, developing our infrastructure and safeguarding our heritage.
Promoting healthy lifestyles
Helping people to stay healthy, strong and fit for the future.
Protecting the vulnerable
Supporting in times of need, protecting from harm and improving the quality of life.
Helping children and young people achieve
Supporting and inspiring children to raise their aspirations and reach their potential.
Our values and behaviours
The words 'quality', 'pride' and 'respect' from the old vision still resonate with many so these are being used to uphold the new values. The new values and behaviours help to guide how we work with each other, with our partners and residents and communities to achieve the vision.
Quality

- I do my best for the people I serve

Pride
We are proud of what we do and we positively embrace change
- I am an ambassador for East Riding of Yorkshire Council
- I am motivated and strive to continually improve services
- I have a flexible attitude and strive to innovate
Respect
We treat people fairly and are open, honest and lead by example
- I can be trusted to do the right thing and be ethical in my actions
- I care about my work, my colleagues and the people and communities I serve
- I value people, listen and respect their views
Vision roadshow
The chief executive is inviting staff from across the council to attend face-to-face sessions where you can find out more about the plans and ask her questions and give feedback. All sessions are being held during working hours and there is no need to book annual leave or make up the time in other ways.
