What it is
The LGA Corporate Peer Challenge is a review carried out by senior councillors and officers from other councils. It looks at how we lead, plan, manage our finances and work with residents and partners.
What they found
The peer team recognised:
- strong leadership
- sound finances
- outstanding children’s services and adults’ social care
They also found areas where we need to improve. This includes more consistent engagement with residents and stronger ‘one council’ working.
What happens next
In July 2026, the LGA peer team will return to review our progress.
