Powys PSB is responsible for developing a local Well-being Plan for the area to help residents achieve their well-being goals. To achieve the ambition of a "Fair, Healthy, and Sustainable Powys", the objectives below have been set as the core aims of the plan:
- People in Powys will live happy, healthy, and safe lives.
- Powys is a county of sustainable places and communities.
- An increasingly effective Public Service for the people of Powys.
Councillor James Gibson-Watt, Leader of Powys County Council and Chair of Powys PSB, said:
"As a PSB, we are committed to taking proactive steps to support the county and its people that not only serve the needs of the current situation and population but that are relevant and appropriate to the needs and wishes of future generations. I encourage everyone to read the updated well-being plan for Powys and complete the survey."
The PSB has been engaging with schools to give young people an opportunity to support the development of the well-being plan by asking them to produce art or poetry based around the theme "What do you want the future of Powys to look like?".
Entries are welcomed from anyone who has yet to participate by posting to: Powys Public Service Board, County Hall, Llandrindod Wells. LD1 5LG or by emailing [email protected].
The work will be entered into a county-wide competition in four categories:
- Early Years and Primary Poetry

There will be an overall winner for the best poem and best artwork per category above, with overall winners being featured within the new Well-being Plan.
