Campaigns
At different times throughout the year the LGA runs campaigns on specific issues that are important to our member councils. Our current campaigns are “Who’s in charge?” and “the Reputation campaign”.
The Local Government Group has also signed up to take part in the “10:10 Campaign”, alongside which we will be holding our Climate Change month in October. Throughout the month we will be highlighting and promoting how councils across the country are fighting climate change.
If you would like to suggest a topic for a campaign for us to run or have any other comments please contact Emily Robinson, Head of Public Affairs and Campaigns on 0207 664 3097 or email emily.robinson@lga.gov.uk
