Slough, Woking, Thurrock, Kent, Birmingham - these are just a few of the councils, of all political colours, in severe financial difficulties at present. The list grows by the week.
This week, I want to provide three more examples of the way in which the council is seeking to plan ahead and secure improvements in the years to come.
Most of us would agree that councils should prioritize helping those who most need help, such as children and adults with physical or mental challenges.
Congatulations to Lou Timlin, who won the Wescott East By-Election on 24th August, becoming the latest councillor on Wokingham Town Council.

Two years of brutal civil war have turned Sudan into one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises, with over 30 million people in urgent need of aid. Our new policy calls for UK leadership to end the conflict - standing with the Sudanese people.
