Council services

All residents of the Kettering Borough Council should have access to a decent home at an affordable price within a desirable place in which they want to live, work and socialise; this strategy highlights how the Council aims to achieve this through the identification of a number of key priorities and the related action plan on delivering these priorities.

The Council strives to provide residents with a high standard of living by providing quality public services, encouraging involvement from communities and engagement with neighbourhoods on a range of issues. We acknowledge the importance of working in partnership with other service providers, neighbouring authorities and, above all, local residents. A more attractive environment and the influence of available housing are essential to achieving sustainable communities. To ensure that the objectives of the Council are achieved targets for improving the quality, choice and range of housing, and the related services, are set within this strategy. Kettering Borough Council is committed to promoting fair access and extending opportunities for participation at a local and a higher level.
