Regional support – 2022/23 highlights

In 2022/23, our far-reaching regional support programme engaged with all 333 councils in England, helping to ensuring that councils had the support they needed to harness opportunities and address challenges.


Overview

We provided a wide range of support as part of our regional support offer, including councillor and officer peer support, mentoring and development sessions, and bespoke and tailored support.

Our post-elections support programme is also a central part of this offer. This programme provided targeted support to councils that experienced a change of control or leadership in 2022, helping to smooth political transitions and ensure that members and officers had access to support and resources to deliver effectively in their roles.
