Sustainable Darlington

The actions and decisions we take must meet the needs of everyone now and for generations to come.

This means balancing different, and often competing, needs against an awareness of the economic, social, and environmental limitations that we face as a society.

The Council is operating at a time of reducing funding and increasing demand for its services.

Adopting a sustainable approach will help us to meet this challenge.

Sustainability is important to every person living in Darlington and affects everyone's lives.

It involves:

• local people
• community groups
• voluntary group
• decision makers
• local businesses
• everybody who has an interest in Darlington
