Redbridge Council has launched a budget survey to gather views on what matters most to local residents.
“We want to inform you about the difficult decisions we, Redbridge Council, will make when prioritising spending to keep vital services running while balancing a squeezed budget,” said a council spokesperson.
“More than a decade of Government austerity has significantly impacted Redbridge. The Council has lost over 54p for every £1 of government grant funding, resulting in over £150m less to spend on local services every year. Despite the challenges of rising inflation, increasing demand, and reduced government funding, Redbridge Council is innovating to continue delivering with less and protecting the vital services that matter most to local people.”
Responses to the survey questions will help set the budget for services in Redbridge for 2025-26.
The survey is open until 1 December.
