Tewkesbury Borough Council Plan 2026 - 2028 Future ready
Future Ready is our internal change programme, preparing the organisation to join a new Gloucestershire unitary authority in 2028. It focuses on maintaining service stability, developing our workforce and skills, and ensuring our systems, processes and governance are ready for the future.
The programme is aligned with the county-wide LGR approach, enabling us to work consistently with partners across Gloucestershire while remaining focused on delivering for our communities.
We are encouraging everyone to play their part by responding positively to change, collaborating across councils, sharing knowledge and resources, and thinking strategically about the future.
The programme ensures that we are:
- Focusing on the delivery to become a unitary authority, ensuring business continuity and service stability is met throughout the transition
- Supporting and developing our workforce, through clear communication, engagement and promoting continuous learning opportunities
- Preparing our systems, process and governance arrangements to enable a smooth transition into any future arrangements.
