4. Part 4: Monitoring and review
Delivering the vision for our greenspaces is a long-term objective. For example, the collective enhancement of our sites for climate change mitigation or environmental improvement, requires a range of coordinated approaches. Although action is required immediately, the realisation of many outcomes will remain a much longer-term objective.
Our staff and volunteers are already thinking about how our services can be delivered in the future. While there are significant challenges, we remain ambitious about achieving our vision and exploring opportunities to support health and wellbeing, balancing different needs and enhancing nature and biodiversity across our greenspaces.
Implementation and monitoring
Turning aspiration into reality is a normal part of the process of strategy review and development. This is why regular reviews are important. Although this strategy is our 10-year plan, we will review it annually to ensure that it is still relevant, that our priorities haven’t changed and that the impact we anticipated is being achieved.
To ensure that we are effectively implementing the strategy, and in line with our usual reporting processes, we will:
- Set and monitor service level performance indicators
- Discuss and review implementation as part of our monthly meetings with the elected Executive Member overseeing the work of the Greenspaces team
- Provide an annual presentation (as part of the Greenspaces Team update) of the performance to Overview & Scrutiny Committee
Alongside this, we will ensure that any existing management plans are included in this review process.
