Your council is changing: We need your views

Share your thoughts and shape the future of local government in Southern and Mid Staffordshire 

Central Government wants to see all councils in shire areas including Staffordshire replaced with fewer councils known as unitary councils, which are responsible for all services in their area. This is known as Local Government Reorganisation.

This is a unique opportunity to rethink how local government can best meet your future needs and aspirations in Staffordshire. Local Government Reorganisation gives us the opportunity to innovate and create effective, high-quality public services for the people of Southern and Mid Staffordshire.

If you want more information on Local Government Reorganisation please visit your council website.

We want to make sure your council works better for you and your community. To do that, we need to hear what’s important to you.

Your feedback will help us shape a new plan for how local government works in Staffordshire. Over the autumn, we’ll use what you tell us to build a clearer picture and prepare a final proposal to share with the Government later this year.

We want to hear what’s important to you

What are the most pressing issues you face, and how can local government help create the future you deserve? This is where your voice matters.

Although many of us use council services daily, we might not often think about how local government is organised – and that’s perfectly okay! Whether you’re an expert on local government or just learning about it, we want to hear from everyone.

The survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete.

If you would like an alternative format of the survey please contact your local district or borough council.
