Central Bedfordshire Council, Luton Council and Bedford Borough Council have secured government support to develop a new fostering hub to help recruit, approve and support more foster carers across the area.
The new £33.9 million facility, operated by Everyone Active on behalf of Central Bedfordshire Council, is a major investment for Leighton Buzzard and the surrounding area.
We celebrated our foster carers at a ‘Celebration of Fostering’ event this weekend, recognising 15 households who together have given an incredible 105 years of dedicated fostering service.
Central Bedfordshire Council is consulting on proposed fee increases across services (8 April - 20 May 2026) to address funding pressures and maintain vital local services.
Thousands of cycling fans lined the streets yesterday, Thursday 4 September, as Central Bedfordshire proudly hosted the Stage Three finish of the prestigious Tour of Britain in Ampthill.
