ABOUT USPutting the heart into South Cambridgeshire by:
Growing local businesses and economies - We will support businesses of all sizes, including rural enterprise and farming, to help create new jobs and opportunities near to where people live and support the local economy to recover post-pandemic.
Housing that is truly affordable for everyone to live in - We will build vibrant communities in locations where people have good access to facilities and transport links, so they can genuinely afford to lead a happy and healthy life.
Being green to our core - We will create a cleaner, greener and zero-carbon future for our communities.
A modern and caring Council - Like all public services, we face challenges with funding in uncertain times. That’s why we must use our resources effectively, like our land and property assets to support our Business Plan for the district.
OUR CORE VALUES
We've now found the four Core Values that matter to you and represent what is important to us as an organisation. These are that we are Ambitious, Collaborative, Compassionate and Accountable.

- We create smart solutions and reach our goals with determination and a clear vision.
Collaborative

Compassionate

Accountable
