Different types of councils in England: In some areas of the UK, residents are covered by a single council (unitary authority) that delivers local services.
In many other areas of England, local services are divided up and delivered by ‘two-tiers’ of councils: county councils deliver some services including education, social care and social services, libraries, and transport; district (or borough/city) councils deliver other services including housing, waste collection and leisure centres. All types of councils have faced drastic cuts.
IT'S TIME
TO SAVE OUR SERVICES
Local government is in crisis. Councils have to spend billions to keep our communities running and protect the most vulnerable yet after years of constant cuts, local services are now stretched to breaking point.
