Local Government Reorganisation update 12th June 2025
Local council leaders have come together after months of collaboration and have identified three preferred options for how the new unitary councils could be structured. These options (see Options Table below) are based on existing boundaries and will be developed further before being submitted to the Government in November 2025.
The good news is that parish and town councils will not be
affected by the reorganisation. We will continue to serve
our communities in the same way we do now. The aim of the changes is to make public services simpler, more efficient and better able to support local economic growth and provide much-needed housing. There will be a public engagement exercise giving residents, businesses and local organisations a chance to share their views on what matters most in this transition which we will keep you updated on.
Do you have a parish or community
newsletter?
Do you have advertising space for a new local care business opportunity?
Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC) are looking to advertise their Care Micro Enterprises across the county in parish, town and community newsletters. An example of the advertisement is available from CAPALC on request.
If your newsletter charges for advertising space, we can reimburse the cost.
