Consultations

Annual Director of Social Services Report Consultation

Every year the Corporate Director of Social Services and Wellbeing must complete and publish their Annual Report. The report evaluates the performance of the local authority in relation to the delivery of its social services functions over the past year. To help us evaluate our social care services, we have created four short questionnaires and are asking residents to complete the one which is most relevant to them:

• Adult Social Care - for those aged 18+ that have experience of adult social care in Bridgend County Borough
• Children and Young People - for children and young people aged 8 to 17 that have experience of children’s social care in Bridgend County Borough
• Carers - for unpaid carers of adults, children or young people that have experience of adult or children’s social care services in Bridgend County Borough
• Parents - for parents of children and young people who have experience of children’s social care in Bridgend County Borough.

Learner Travel Consultation

This consultation is to invite views on potential changes to the travel arrangements for pupils and college learners, and how any proposed changes to the Home to School/College Transport Policy will affect you and your family.

Bridgend County Borough Council is currently facing unprecedented pressures on its budget which will result in the need to make significant budget reductions over the next four years. This is set against a backdrop of a projected overspend of £1.157M for home-to-school transport in 2023-2024. As one of the most generous learner travel policy offers in Wales, there is a proposed £792k saving for 2025-26 in the Council’s Medium Term Financial Strategy.
