Quality Council Status
The Quality Council scheme requires a Town Council to:
Be representative of, and actively engage, all parts of its community, providing vision,
identity and a sense of belonging
Be effectively and properly managed
Articulate the needs and wishes of its community
Uphold high standards of conduct
Be committed to work in partnership with principal local authorities and other public service agencies
In proportion to its size and skills, deliver local services on behalf of principal local authorities when this represents the best deal for the local community
Work closely with voluntary groups in its community
Provide leadership to the community through its work on parish plans, and working with its partners, act as an information point for local services
Chesham Town Council is very proud to have achieved Quality status and will continue to strive to meet these objectives at every opportunity.
