For our first episode in our resilience and recovery series, we speak to Councillor Peter Fleming the Leader of Sevenoaks District Council and Chair of the Local Government Association’s Improvement & Innovation Board.
We discuss how local authorities have handled the pandemic, how innovation can play its part in the recover and what Peter is most proud of in local government's response to Covid-19.
We think that the response from local government and the resilience under such enormous pressure has been remarkable and we wanted to highlight this with our weekly series.
