There’s still time to have your say and help shape our county’s well-being

Denbighshire residents are being urged to have their say before a county-wide public survey assessing the well-being of our county closes on Friday, 31 July 2026.

With only a short time left to take part, residents are encouraged to share their views and help shape the future of their communities. Feedback gathered will inform the Well-being Assessment for Denbighshire and Conwy, where a similar survey is also running. Together, views gathered in both counties will guide the priorities that public services focus on in the years ahead, including local government, health, fire and rescue and Natural Resources Wales.

It is an opportunity for local people to influence decisions that affect everyday life, from community wellbeing to long-term planning.

Public bodies in Wales are required to plan for the long term and consider the needs of future generations and to do so collectively under Public Service Boards. Denbighshire’s Public Service Board is shared with Conwy. To do that effectively, they need to understand what is working well now, what challenges communities are facing, and what people want life in the county to look like in the future.

Every response received will help build a clearer picture of shared priorities, concerns and opportunities across both Denbighshire and Conwy.

Councillor Julie Matthews, Deputy Leader and Lead Member for Corporate Strategy, Policy, Equalities and Strategic Assets, said: “This exercise is completed every 5 years as part of developing key strategies for the council. There is still time for residents of all ages to share their voice as this is an opportunity for you to help everyone’s well-being in the county moving forward. Please, your voice is important.

“The more people we have taking part , the better picture we will have at the end of this survey of what matters to you across our county so please take a few minutes of your time to share your thoughts.”

The survey takes around 10 minutes to complete will close on Friday, 31 July 2026. Residents who have not yet responded are encouraged to complete it as soon as possible. It is available in alternative formats by contacting the Strategic Planning Team using the email strategicplanningteam@denbighshire.gov.uk
