Q: How can I become involved?

    You can have your say on the draft Redlands Coast Young People’s Action Plan by reading the document and providing your thoughts and feedback through the short online survey on our Your Say page.

    Q: How will my feedback be used? Can I expect to see it in the strategy?

    Council expects to receive large amounts of feedback on how the Redlands Coast Young People’s Action Plan can support our young people and communities. This information will be collated and analysed into common themes and approaches. These will help inform the final Redlands Coast Young People’s Action Plan.

    While you may not see your feedback or suggestion directly in the action plan, all feedback and ideas are important to building the broader themes and actions. 

    Q: Will Council be delivering the strategy alone or in partnership?

    Council will lead the delivery of the Redlands Coast Young People’s Action Plan. Some action items may be the responsibility of other levels of government, or private enterprise. This will be clearly identified in the Action Plan. Some action items may be delivered in partnership; however, the overall action plan will be delivered by Council. 

    Q: Why now?

    Engagement with our communities in developing Council’s Our Future Redlands – A Corporate Plan to 2026 and Beyond, Strong Communities was identified as a goal. A key initiative of this goal is developing and implementing a Redlands Coast Young People’s Action Plan.

    With all data packages from the 2021 Census now released and the community recovering and moving forward after the global pandemic, now is an opportune time for Council to explore what our communities need to strengthen existing connections and build new ones.
