Essex Vision
Change is unstoppable. So, we will make it happen on our terms. We will amplify all that is good and unique about Essex and its people – our boldness, our cheek, our loyalty and fierce independence. We will harness this spirit, and make it contagious. Embrace the new and celebrate our differences. We will create a County where every single person has the support, the opportunity, the self belief to fulfil the promise of their potential. And we will do it together.
The #EssexAndProud campaign is creating a movement to unite communities and inspire pride; and so bring visitors, investment, opportunities and new people to Essex.
A new Community Chest fund, together with The Essex Map, will enable communities to support people to live well and connect people to the place where they live.
Below you can hear from inspirational community groups looking to share learning, bust stereotypes and celebrate Essex.
