Russell O'Keefe
Chief Executive
Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council
Serving the third largest town in Hampshire, we are an ambitious council committed to putting residents at the heart of everything we do and providing high quality services that make a difference to local people. This includes recycling and waste collections, keeping streets clean and maintaining parks and play areas, housing and homelessness services and much more.
As well as delivering services and supporting our partners, we are leading on a number of exciting large-scale projects to shape the borough for future generations. We are reimagining our town centre’s vibrant future, breathing new life into our flagship business park, bringing new attractions to our leisure park and delivering new affordable homes at Manydown in partnership with Hampshire County Council and master developer Urban&Civic.
And we are driving forward with action to meet our ambitious targets of becoming a carbon neutral organisation by 2025 and carbon neutral borough by 2030.
