Tackling inequality, celebrating diversity and promoting inclusion
Kensington and Chelsea has many strengths. It is home to diverse communities with a wide range of expertise, skills and experiences. The borough is also an unequal place, with high levels of deprivation and stark differences for residents depending on where they live and their backgrounds.
Our residents feel these differences and have challenged us to do more to make the borough a better place for everyone who lives here.
Opportunities for all
Our plan sets out a clear ambition for the next four years. We want to:
- help break the cycle of inequality
- increase opportunities for everyone
- build a fairer Kensington and Chelsea
We know the council cannot tackle inequality alone. Our plan will require the support of government, staff, health and voluntary and community partners and residents to succeed. Tackling inequality is a long-term commitment; we all have a role to play in breaking this cycle, through targeted actions focused on those who most need our help.
Our core ambitions
Building a fairer borough is one of the three core ambitions in our Council Plan. It is a priority for services across the council. We have a range of initiatives underway to increase opportunities for residents and support better results for all.
The plan focuses on how the council can support better results for residents in key areas where we can help.
