At the end of each calendar year, the Town Council is required to set its priorities and budget for the next financial year.
The council prepares several documents which assist with planning for the following financial year and beyond.
These are presented to the meeting of Full Council in December each year in draft form, before being consulted upon, and then presented to Full Council in January for finalisation and adoption.
The draft documents are published online for residents to make comments between the Full Council meetings in December and January, and the feedback received is reported to members at their January Full Council meeting.
The most recent Strategic Plan 2024-29, Annual Plan 2024/25, and Annual Budget 2024/25 were adopted by Uckfield Town Council at their meeting of the full Council on 15 January 2024.

Our Annual Plan 2024-25 offers a simplified look at priority projects that we will be addressing over the next 12 months, condensed onto one sheet.

The Town Council regularly reviews its corporate policies, which ensure that we have a number of internal controls and procedures in place to effectively manage the organisation. These policies guide our elected members and staff in their day to day work.
