This page contains links to news or press release pages on the websites of local authorities in all UK nations and regions, the Republic of Ireland and the Crown dependencies of the Isle of Man (listed with North-west England) and the Channel Islands (with South-west England). Socitm uses these links to research nations and regions news round-ups.

In England, the list covers lower-tier district, borough and city councils, unitary authorities, county councils and combined authorities. Councils are organised by region then if applicable by combined authority area and county then alphabetically by the area’s main name. In Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, councils are listed alphabetically by the area’s main name, using the English version for those with names in two languages.

If you find any broken or incorrect links, please email inourview@socitm.net.
