Our pledge
York City Partnership has committed to the following pledge over the decade ahead.
Together, we pledge to:
- Commit to the York 2032 Vision and the York 2032 Priorities - the vision and priorities are not owned by City of York Council or by any other partner. Instead, it focuses the energy, commitment, and efforts of all partners to prioritise those things that improve the city for the people who live, work and visit York.
- Operate with mutual respect, honesty and openness to develop a deeper evidence-led understanding of each other’s priorities, realities and opportunities, alongside the role of local democracy, to address the challenges we all face.
- Take evidence-led actions together - be ambitious, optimistic and realistic about the change we can make, now and in the longer term.
- Work together, pool resources where possible, increasing the sustainability and scalability of change by supporting and coordinating city resources through shared agendas and commons goals.
- Build momentum to be able to react quickly, be dynamic in problem solving and communicate effectively to achieve our aims.
- Commit to priorities to attract future investment to engage the mayor, health and care partners and investors, so when investment is available it is committed to those areas that are most important to York.
