Leading by Example

Are you an exemplary council? Is your council leading in innovation? Or do you want to learn from other councils how they have tackled a number of current issues?

Leadingbyexample.org.uk is the online peer to peer support and self assessment toolkit that has been developed by councils, for councils. This site has now been redeveloped to reflect the changing and challenging times we are working in, as well as keeping up to date with the latest solutions and case studies.

'Wandsworth's Future Works' is funded through London Councils ESF and Wandsworth Council and will be delivered from a brand new office opened in Battersea.
