Local Government

Love it or hate it, Local Government is responsible for much of what happens in the Burnley district. In addition to images and stories about elections, candidates and officials, the services provided at local, county and some national levels are included. Some of these services have been been delivered by different levels of government over time, such as education, libraries, fire, police and waste now all delivered at County level and health by regional bodies.
