Navigate the complexities of local government reorganisation with those leading the change

Attend the LGC Summit: LGR Special to explore what the government’s pause on local government reorganisation means for councils, their staff, partners and communities and what happens next.

Taking place on 16 September at Park Regis, Birmingham, ahead of the LGC Summit, this timely event will bring together colleagues from across the sector to share current thinking, experiences and practical approaches at a moment of significant uncertainty.

With the implications of the government’s announcement still emerging, no one has all the answers, but everyone has a perspective to share. The event will provide space to explore how councils are communicating with staff and external partners, maintaining constructive relationships with other councils, deciding what work to continue or pause, and preparing for the potential challenges and opportunities that may lie ahead.

With candid discussion, peer exchange and opportunities to contribute, the event will focus on making sense of the current position together and helping councils navigate whatever comes next.

Held under the Chatham House Rule, it will provide a safe environment for open and constructive discussion, enabling colleagues to share experiences, concerns and practical ideas at a critical point in the LGR process.
