Consultation and Community Involvement (CCI) is at the heart of the Council’s approach to policy making, service delivery and community leadership. It is integral to the new Shared Vision for the Borough as set in Rotherham’s Community Strategy. This for example seeks to ensure that “Active Citizenship and democracy will under-pin how Rotherham works”… and “that there will be many opportunities for people to be involved in civic life and decision making”.

RMBC has developed what is known as the CCI Framework to, amongst other things strengthen mechanisms so that people who are participating can see the results of their contribution is having an influence on decisions, policy and service development, as well as strengthen the links between CCI and decision making, ensuring that exercises relate to a decision that the Council is intending to make and that can be influenced by the results of that activity.

This Community Engagement Database (CED) has been developed to compliment the framework and to help our citizens become more informed about the consultations run by the council and its partners to help plan consultation, provide sharing of results and avoid ‘over consulting’. In particular it will record and disseminate previous, current and forthcoming major consultations and automate the process of updating where service changes have been made as a result of the consultation.
