Our Lewisham, Our Say - Click to enter forum Over the last three years, Lewisham Council has saved around £26 million by cutting waste and becoming more efficient. Over the next three years cuts in national Government funding are likely to mean that Lewisham Council will have to reduce its spending by around £60 million.
We will continue to cut waste and do things more efficiently where we can. But if we are to balance our budget in the coming years, we will need to look at providing services differently and providing a different level of service in some areas.
Have your say in how Lewisham Council can best face these challenges.
The forum is split into threads where you can discuss each issue. We want to know: • what Council services you value most • what you think the Council could do less of • where you think you and your friends, family and neighbours could help each other more to improve your area.
You can also start your own thread/ discussion topic relating to the above areas.
