Powys residents urged to have their say on what well-being means to them

There is still time for residents, organisations and community representatives across Powys to share their views on what well-being means to them as part of a countywide survey, the county council has said.

The survey will help shape the updated Powys Well-being Assessment, a key document required under the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015, which provides an assessment of well-being across Powys, looking at current conditions, what influences people’s well-being, and how this may change in the future.

The Well-being Assessment considers four key themes social, economy, environment and culture and community

The Powys Public Services Board (PSB) has already gathered a wide range of data and insight but is now calling on local people to share their lived experiences and priorities.

Councillor Jake Berriman, Chair of the Powys PSB, said: “We want to hear directly from people across Powys about what matters most in their day-to-day lives. Your feedback will help us better understand the challenges and opportunities facing our communities, now and in the future.”

The short survey asks residents about what well-being means to them, what affects their day-to-day lives and what should be improved now and in the future

Responses will be used to help shape the final Well-being Assessment, due to be published in early 2027, and will be used to inform the next Well-being Plan.

The closing date for responses is September 30 2026.
