Coronavirus: Information for counties

The Coronavirus outbreak is a fast-moving situation. Since the first wave and the outbreak of a second wave, the County Councils Network and member councils are working with the Ministry of Housing, Communities, and Local Government, the Department for Health and Social Care, and the Department for Education, and the Local Government Association to help co-ordinate the local response to Covid-19, and to disseminate information to county councils and unitary authorities.

The links below provide an overview of the latest government guidance for councils, alongside the latest from the County Councils Network and what county authorities are doing to assist the national effort.

Council leaders and chief executives have asked the County Councils Network (CCN) to collate key issues, good practice and innovative solutions during the Coronavirus outbreak.
