Politics is the lifeblood of local government. At their best, politicians know and understand their communities intimately, create aspirations out of local desires, draw compelling pictures of the future and bring people together to achieve great things. But, inspiring local communities and creating a better future for the people and places we represent takes ambitious leadership.
The LGA Independent Group Next Generation programme has been developed within the traditions and values of the Independent Group, drawing on a range of experts to create an unparalleled political development opportunity.
The programme is designed to support and encourage you to:
- be bold and confident political leaders: representing, understanding and working with your communities
- upholding a clear set of values and morals
- progress in your political careers
- be champions of local government within your wider political career.
