About the LG Association
The Local Government Association (LG Association) is the national voice for local government. We speak for nearly 500 local authorities - these represent over 50 million people, and spend around £65 billion on local services. We exist to promote better local government, and want to bring power closer to people and the places in which they live.
We are striving to encourage councils and the local community to work more closely together, through bold devolution and more public involvement in service delivery.
