The latest iteration of the council cuts website was launched in late September. This coincided with the publication of the latest research showing that councils across England, Scotland and Cymru/Wales are facing a collective funding gap of over £3.5bn for the next financial year.
A key part of the council cuts website allows for people email to their MP/MSP/MS to call for more funding for council services via the email action tool.
To date, only around 1,500 emails have been sent calling for more council funding. Given the dire state of local council funding we urgently need to encourage more members to use the website and send off emails.
Can we encourage you to email your MP/MSP/MS.
We all share a common interest in trying to secure more money for local councils.
