Closed consultation

Details

Like other local authorities, the Council is facing significant funding pressures. There are considerable pressures in many of our service areas, notably in temporary accommodation, SEND provision and transport, and in both Children’s and Adult Social Care.  Despite significant budget pressures we are still delivering services that help and support our residents, and we are continuing to create a better borough for the well-being of all our communities.

We must set a balanced budget for the forthcoming financial year 2026-27, which is proving to be a challenge.

We asked you to tell us about your priorities and your views on our proposed approach for setting a balanced budget for 2026-27. Details of our proposals were laid out in our Medium Term Financial Plan 2026-27 to 2030-31 (PDF).

Who could share their views

Those who live, work and study in the borough, as well as representatives from the voluntary and community sector, local businesses, and any other organisations.

Questionnaire.

Closing date

11 January 2026 (11.59pm).
