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.

Children needing mainstream school support, families affected by domestic abuse, and young people in care will get renewed support under new Central Bedfordshire Council plans.

We're asking residents, businesses and visitors to take part in a public consultation on proposed new powers to tackle vehicle-related anti-social behaviour across the area.
