In November and December 2018, the Local Government Association (LGA) and the National Housing Federation (NHF) hosted five roadshow events across England, under the theme: ‘Working Together to tackle Homelessness’.
This sector-led improvement programme is an opportunity for councils and their partners to access leading expertise, learn from one another and share good practice.
Around the country many councils are working with people, providers of care, the voluntary and community sector and health partners to ensure that information is shared, and people’s needs met. In this paper you will read examples of where councils and other partners are working together to make this happen.
The case studies in this document build on the detailed guidance we published in 2017, and on the modern slavery workshops which we have held around the country.

This report contains the findings of a survey undertaken in June 2019 LGA which gathered the views of graduates who had just completed the two year National Graduate Development Programme (ngdp) of the programme and the effect that participation has had on them.
The case studies in this report provide examples from around the country of councils collaborating, both among themselves and with CCGs and NHS England, to commission integrated services and improve the sexual health and wellbeing of their local populations.
