Councils need a bigger cake
The Government’s response to the coronavirus crisis will, quite rightly, be judged by the historians and will focus on the human cost of the pandemic.
Taking care of our mental wellbeing
The coronavirus pandemic – the most challenging health crisis for many decades – is having a profound impact on the mental health of the communities that we represent.
A collaborative approach to COVID-19
Nobody should underestimate the difficulty and size of the task that has faced the Government in tackling the coronavirus crisis, or doubt that ministers have had the best of intentions in their response.
Councils leading with clarity
The latest government roadmap aims for more children to be back at school and more parents back at work by 1 June.
Council-led coordination protecting millions
With the coronavirus crisis continuing to expand, local government is once again proving its importance to the nation.
Safeguarding ‘must underpin support’
As a community, the situation we are facing with coronavirus is unprecedented. This needs an unprecedented response from councils, communities and ourselves, as councillors.
Councillors supporting our communities
As we respond to the pandemic facing our country, councillors are doing a great deal to support our communities.
Delivering what our residents need
Local leadership is never more important than in a wartime theatre, as we feel we are in now.
Collaborative working has paid off
At the time of writing, we are entering the fifth week of the coronavirus lockdown, with the Government having just extended it for at least three more weeks.
