Strategies

We are working with residents, council departments, and a range of local partners - including from health and voluntary and community sectors - to develop some key strategies.

These are data and evidence-led with residents at the heart, shaped by what residents tell us matter most to them. These strategies will underpin our work over the coming years.

The strategies being developed include: Islington Dementia Strategy, Adult Social Care Accommodation Strategy, Islington All-Age Autism Strategy and Housing with Care and Support Strategy.

If you want to be involved in the development of any of these strategies, email uci@islington.gov.uk.
