Privacy Notice - Playzone Consultation

Please read the following Privacy Notice carefully.

Why we are collecting your data

Basildon Borough Council needs to collect your personal data in line with the Council's promise outlined within our corporate plan that we will listen to and work with our communities when making decisions, developing policies and designing services. 

In order to give residents and visitors to Basildon the opportunity to lead more active, healthier lifestyles, we are intending to apply for the Football Foundation's PlayZone Grant. The funding will help support the redevelopment of one of Basildon's existing multi-use ballcourts or help create a new one.

Basildon Council is committed to ensuring that we listen to residents and service users and, in order to give us the best possible chance of being awarded these funds, we would like to hear your views to help shape our PlayZone funding application.

The findings of this consultation will be used to inform the application development process and future service improvements.
