The Council’s Culture & Heritage Strategy articulates the vision, key objectives and detailed action plan for the service between 2024 and 2030. 

The strategy sets out how we will continue to support a thriving culture and heritage landscape, one which reflects the rich and diverse nature of Barking & Dagenham. 

In it we set out our approach to collaborate closely with local people, cultural practitioners and organisations across civic society and creative sectors, and how we aim to deliver our work effectively across Council departments and services. 

It is the result of extensive conversations with people from across these different stakeholders.
