We deliver a wide range of essential services, including education, social care, housing, environmental services, planning, economic development and public health.

Supporting businesses and strengthening Torbay’s visitor economy is a key part of our long-term ambition and sits at the heart of our Economic Growth Strategy and English Riviera Destination Plan.

Working alongside a wide range of public and private sector partners, we are committed to making the English Riviera the UK’s premier holiday destination, growing a high-quality year-round visitor economy and helping local businesses succeed.

Through collaboration with local partners and organisations, we are working towards a thriving economy that supports a healthy, happy and prosperous Torbay for all.
