Council Plan Progress Report for 2025

One City for All, the City of York’s Council Plan 2023-2027, sets a strong ambition to increase opportunities for everyone living in York to live healthy and fulfilling lives.

The Council Plan describes the actions we will take to achieve our vision of a healthier and fairer city which is more affordable, more sustainable and more accessible.

Our four commitments, known as EACH are:

  • Equalities and human rights
  • Affordability – tackling the cost-of-living crisis
  • Climate and Environment
  • Health and Wellbeing

Every 6 months, we'll also share a snapshot of progress against our priority actions under the four Core Commitments (EACH).

None of our work would be possible without the support, contribution and commitment of the partners, businesses, residents and communities that make York such an incredible place.
