Consultations
We want to give everyone who lives, works or visits County Durham the chance to help improve our services and influence the decisions we make. One way we do this is by giving individuals, businesses and organisations the chance to have their say about subjects and services which they have an interest in.
Current consultations
Our consultations have moved! Our consultations are now on our new consultation and engagement platform, Let's Talk County Durham. This is a space for you to be actively involved in matters that affect you and your local area. There are more ways for you to get involved, including surveys, commenting, quick polls and voting. There will also be the ability to put forward ideas and proposals, and join in discussions on proposals.
