Local Council Award Scheme

The Local Council Award Scheme (LCAS) is tailored to celebrate the achievements of the finest parish and town councils while offering a structured framework to empower all councils to enhance and realise their full potential. This scheme allows councils to demonstrate adherence to sector standards, be evaluated by their peers, and establish conditions conducive to ongoing improvement.

The scheme is carefully crafted to equip parish and town councils with the tools and encouragement needed at the initial stages of their improvement journeys. Simultaneously, it seeks to spotlight and commend councils at the forefront of the sector. Only through collaborative efforts within the sector, sharing best practices, elevating standards, and supporting those dedicated to enhancing their community offerings can individual councils and the sector as a whole reach their maximum potential.
