#NCLW: We want every young person to feel a #StepAhead when they leave care.
From providing practical to emotional support, #LocalGov is there to help every step of the way.
We are working to ensure both councils and their young people leaving care get the support they need.
The @LGAcomms is looking to recruit a senior advisor to the Chair, (which is currently me!!)
Take a look at this exciting role at the heart of cross party working for #LocalGovt

Chair @CllrShaunDavies has just launched our new campaign #MakeItLocal.
Public services can be delivered faster, better and more efficiently at a local level.
To deliver priorities for the public, the next government needs to #MakeItLocal.

We are so pleased to see changes to the Right to Buy (RTB) scheme, something we have long called for, as the previous rules, alongside the significant discounts to tenants, have meant that councils have struggled to replace social homes on a one-for-one basis. ⬇️ 1/4

Today we're joining 200+ signatories in an urgent plea to @RishiSunak, asking for the much needed support for grassroots facilities and clubs.
Without this support, these facilities and the vital health benefits they provide, will disappear. 👇
Tune into @itvnews at 6pm tonight to hear from LGA Vice-Chair & Co-chair of the Civility in Public Life Steering Group, @OvertonMarianne discuss our #DebateNotHate campaign.
Abuse has no place in politics, we need to see action to protect current cllrs & candidates.

All children deserve a happy and loving home life.
It's great to see this year's @JohnLewisRetail Christmas advert shining a light on children in care and their long-term commitment to help build happier futures.
#NCASC22: Children's services are under mounting pressure.
A number of financial challenges means #LocalGov is struggling to deliver the support children and families need.
To keep children safe and protect our future generations, we must #SaveLocalServices 👇
“The health service saved my life, but social care helps me live it.”
Adult social care is not simply a set of services, it's about supporting people of all ages to live the lives they want to lead as emphasised by Caroline 👇

#SaveLocalServices#NCASC22
The scale of the financial pressures #LocalGov is facing cannot be met by reducing costs, making efficiencies or raising council tax.
Without action from the Government, councils will have no choice but to cut the services we all rely on.
#SaveLocalServices – a thread 👇
”Without certainty of adequate funding for next year and beyond, and given the funding gaps councils are seeing, they’ll have no choice but to implement significant cuts to services - including those for the most vulnerable.”

Councils and local partners are working hard to support residents who are struggling to cope with the rise in the #CostOfLiving
We have created a Cost of Living Hub which outlines best practice, resources and data to help councils deliver this support ⤵️
