Caring for care leavers
National Care Leavers’ Week finished earlier this month, with councils around the country lighting up civic buildings in blue in support and recognition of their care leavers.

The art of the economically possible
Our Labour Government has the unenviable task of balancing what it would wish to do with what is economically possible.
Local government is the pillar of our party
Conservative Party conference this year demonstrated that the Conservative local government family is now the dominant pillar of our party.
Committed to serving our communities
As I reminded my party’s conference in September, there were local elections this May – as well as the amazing general election results, where a record 72 Lib Dem MPs were returned.
Keeping democracy near to residents
We will shortly be gathering for the ‘Glastonbury of local government’, the LGA’s annual conference in Harrogate.
Investing in care leavers
As we prepare to celebrate National Care Leavers’ Week 2024 in October, it’s vital to recognise the strength and potential of young people transitioning from our care.
Local government needs more equal relationship
All politics is local and that is precisely the message the LGA Conservative Group has been getting across to the candidates in the Conservative leadership election.
Looking forward to conference
Since the new Labour Government was elected in July, no time has been wasted in taking decisive action to put local government on a stronger footing to support delivery of the Government’s missions.
The true party of local government
As this first hits your doormats, Liberal Democrats will be making their annual pilgrimage to the south coast for five days of policy and politics.
Equality, civility and cohesion
Welcome to all our MPs, ministers and valued members.
