📢 Tell us what services matter most to you

The UK Government is cutting Westminster's funding by almost half over the next four years. Combined with rising costs and increasing demand for services, this means the Council faces a significant budget challenge.
Before any decisions are made about savings and Council Tax, we want to hear from you.

🗣️ Come and share your views with us at 4 Lilestone Street this week.
📅 Monday 24 to Thursday 28 of August
⏰ 12pm-4pm

Your feedback will help us understand which services are most important to residents and communities.
