Councils around the country are preparing for winter.
Councils play an essential role in keeping the country going throughout the cold winter months.
Gritting roads, clearing snow, delivering meals on wheels, collecting prescriptions, free parking and Santa's grottos are just some of the wide range of services councils provide for communities and the national economy as a whole.
This resource aims to keep member councils, the public and the media abreast of the work going on in villages, towns and cities across the country.
We will add information as it becomes available.
