Aberdeen 2036: Help Finalise Our Plans

You Told Us What Matters. Now Help Finalise the Plans.

Public Consultation: Local Outcome Improvement Plan 2026-36 & Locality Plans 2026–36
Shaped by Your Place, Your Plans, Your Future engagement

What this consultation is about

Last year, Community Planning Aberdeen carried out its biggest citywide engagement: Your Place, Your Plans, Your Future. From Feb to March 2025, 2,087 people, including hundreds of children and young people, shared their views on what life in Aberdeen is like today and what could make it better.

You told us about the importance of:

  • Feeling safe in your community
  • Green and natural spaces
  • Opportunities for young people
  • Fair work, skills and financial security
  • Stronger community connections
  • Accessible services and support
  • Housing that feels like home
  • Having a genuine say in local decisions

See our You Said, We Propose to see how what you said is important aligns to the proposals.

Since then, we have held a citywide conference, local community ideas workshops to brainstorm practical improvements, and locality events to share emerging findings and gather further insight. These activities have helped build on what participants told us and have supported the development of our draft Plans.

Why we need your voice again

We want to hear what you think about the priorities and proposals in the draft Local Outcome Improvement Plan 2026-36. Do they reflect what matters most to you, your family, and your community?

This is your chance to:

  • Let us know if you support the proposals, or not
  • Tell us if the proposals might affect you, or others
  • Highlight any priorities that you think need added.

Your feedback will make sure the final plans reflect the real experiences, aspirations, and needs of the people who live here.
