Big Community Conversation 2025

Have Your Say in the Big Community Conversation

We want to hear from you!

Every summer, we hold the Big Community Conversation to listen to what’s important to local people, and this year your views will help shape our priorities for the next four years. This summer we want to know what you like most about North Tyneside and what could make it even better.

What you say will help how we and our partners, like the police, fire service, schools, voluntary sector and NHS, deliver services in the future. These partners are part of the North Tyneside Strategic Partnership (NTSP), which brings together key organisations working across the Borough.

In the autumn, we’ll work together on actions and ideas based on what you’ve told us and put your views towards a Council Plan for 2026-2030.

Get involved and help make North Tyneside an even better place to live.

You can take part in our survey or by coming along to meet us in person at one of our events. If you need an Easy Read version of the survey, you can find a printable document here or request one from engagement@northtyneside.gov.uk

You can also watch our short animation below.
