Purpose

We are much more than a Council. Our work impacts the lives of the communities we serve in a profound way through the range of services we offer, as a major employer and a vital link in the infrastructure that supports the community. We respect Ailan Kastom and what it teaches us to help culture and communities to thrive. We recognise that each community is not the same with unique language and cultural differences.
