From today, Section 21 ‘no-fault’ evictions are abolished in England, which the LGA has long called for. However, it is vital councils have the capacity and long-term funding needed to enforce the new system effectively, support tenants, and work constructively with landlords.

Passing the Tobacco and Vapes Bill is a landmark moment for public health. Creating a smokefree generation and licensing retailers can help improve health outcomes and prevent underage sales, if councils are properly resourced to support enforcement. local.gov.uk/about/news/tob…

🐉 Happy St George’s Day! Today (23 April) we celebrate St George, England’s patron saint and the legendary dragon‑slaying hero. 🔎 What’s the myth? According to legend, St George saved a king’s daughter from being sacrificed to a fearsome dragon. By defeating the dragon, he protected not only the princess, but the whole kingdom. 🏛️ Visit your local @lancslibraries for a themed quiz, fun activities and more. You can also head to @LancsMuseums' Clitheroe Castle this evening (Thursday 23 April), where cultural historian Dr Sam Riches explores the rich history of this unique saint. Tickets cost £6 with a free pass to visit the museum - find out more below. 📆 Thursday 23 April 7 - 8pm 👉 orlo.uk/KqwhN #StGeorgesDay
