The need to make hefty cuts in Council expendture has been flagged up for some time. The Council needs to save £96 million by April 2019 as a result of reduced central government funding. This will affect every single one of us from fortnightly waste collections and reduced road gritting to possibly closing the Solace mental health drop-in centre in West Ealing and 400 redundancies amongst Council staff.
We’ll come back to this in more detail but for now the Ealing Today website has a useful summary of some of the cuts that may be made.
