Local Government Association

The Local Government Association (LGA) is the national membership body representing councils across England and Wales. It works closely with local authorities to champion their interests, strengthen local leadership and influence national policy. The LGA supports councils delivering housing, regeneration, infrastructure and local economic growth by providing guidance, advocacy and opportunities for collaboration. Through research, policy development and sector support, the organisation plays an important role in shaping the future of local government. The LGA also promotes innovation and knowledge sharing across councils as they work to deliver new homes, revitalise communities and respond to the challenges of growth and housing demand.
