Local Government Association

The Levelling Up White Paper presents an opportunity to reset the relationship between central and local government and put councils at the heart of delivering the Government’s ambitious programme to improve opportunities and outcomes in all parts of the country.

A letter to The Rt Hon Priti Patel MP and The Rt Hon Michael Gove MP suggesting key areas of focus for joint work across local and central government as a matter of urgency, as agreed by all four UK local government associations.

The purpose of this roundtable was to provide high level thinking from councils around the opportunities and challenges in developing young people strategies that will help them in contributing to their local economies.

The roundtable was chaired by Morag McInnes, Business and Enterprise Lead at East Suffolk District Council who delivered a scene setting case study about a project that the council has undertaken to deliver a package of advice, insights, and support to help businesses in East Suffolk to grow, by improving their online presence.
