About

‘Service and efficiency’ is the motto inscribed in the stained-glass window in the main stairwell of Trafford Town Hall. It sums-up our outlook. This is a ‘can-do’ place. Business-like. Focused. A home to makers. Innovators. Problem-solvers. As a Council, we are ambitious for our residents. We pride ourselves on being a low-cost high performing Council. We are responsive to the needs of our diverse communities and efficient in how we meet them. Although many parts of the borough are prosperous by Greater Manchester’s standards, people in some areas face hardship in their daily lives. We are there for them and will continue to raise living standards and life expectancy. This, then, is a snapshot of Trafford. Welcoming, connected, innovative. Proud of our history but prouder of how we can look to an even great future for our borough.
