A community that makes daily life easier

A community that supports and develops local public and private services and initiatives that meet the specific needs of its residents (early childhood, children, young people, couples, families, adults and seniors).

CONTEXT

The trend towards digitalization, rationalization and centralization is making access to many day-to-day services complicated and stressful (fewer cash dispensers, disappearance of mutual insurance offices, etc.). One glaring difficulty in organizing our young families is the lack of places in day-care centers (W-O is one of the Flemish municipalities with the fewest places). We are fortunate to have 6 elementary school and several communities; this happy diversity is to be encouraged by unfailing and equitable support for all our neighborhood schools, educational and sports activities, green classes and extracurricular activities.

Our position

The commune has premises where it can develop a more proactive policy to retain and/or attract a range of day-to-day services closer to residents, so as to make their daily lives easier and at the same time promote encounters between residents.

Education, information and prevention can foster a sense of well-being and peace of mind among residents.
