Leicester has everything it needs to succeed.
Leicester is a city full of talent, enterprise and strong communities. But too many residents tell us they feel the city has been standing still.
Over recent months, we've been listening to people across Leicester. We've knocked on thousands of doors, met local businesses, visited community groups and spoken to residents in every part of the city.
The same themes keep coming up. Cleaner streets. Safer neighbourhoods. Better jobs. More investment. A council that focuses on the services people use every day.
Now it's your turn.
Help shape Leicester's future
We're asking residents to complete our Leicester Listens Survey.
Your views will directly shape the priorities and policies we'll publish ahead of the 2027 local elections. Every response will be read and analysed as we develop a resident-led programme for Leicester.
This isn't about telling you what we think.
It's about listening first.
The five questions shaping Leicester's future
We're asking residents to tell us what matters most in five key areas:
🧹 Cleaner Leicester, keeping our streets, parks and public spaces clean and well maintained.
🛡️ Safer Communities, tackling anti-social behaviour and helping people feel safe where they live.
💼 Jobs & Opportunity, supporting local businesses, attracting investment and creating better jobs.
🏗️ Leicester's Future, bringing new investment and regenerating neglected parts of the city.
🏛️ Better Council, ensuring the council listens to residents, spends money wisely and focuses on everyday services.
You'll also be able to tell us your biggest neighbourhood priorities and share your own ideas for Leicester.
What happens next?
This survey is only the beginning.
Over the coming months we'll continue listening through:
- Doorstep conversations
- Community meetings
- Business roundtables
- Online surveys
- Ward campaigns
We'll then publish what residents told us and show how it has shaped the programme we take to the people of Leicester.
