We want to help councils at all stages of their devolution journey and offer a range of support, from advice and research to networking and events.

A guide to help councils navigate devolution deals, with a particular focus on understanding the lessons from developing a deal to delivering it.

Between January and February 2022, the LGA conducted an online survey of members of its six Combined Authority Networks. This was to evaluate the LGA’s support in running these networks on the capacity and capability of members’ organisations to deliver their devolution deal objectives.

The purpose of this paper is to identify ways in which the leadership skills and capacity required in local government to understand and exploit digital tools and approaches effectively can best be developed and supported.

The information in this guide has been drawn from 10 workshops, and other events, held across England in 2017.

Within the context of the Health and Social Care Act 2012 a number of key sectors have come together to provide effective leadership and support for the successful implementation of local Healthwatch (LHW).

The LGA has developed this guidance to bring together some of the questions that authorities may want to consider if they are thinking about introducing a mandatory CCTV policy for licenced vehicles in their area.

The Quality Assurance Framework sets out the approach that Herefordshire Council takes to ensuring local care and support services provide what individual residents need. It is a set of processes with one goal – to deliver high quality care and support services to the citizens of Herefordshire. This forms part of our adult social care markets and commissioning resource.
