Lichfield District Council is in the running for a national award.

The local authority has been named as a finalist in the Most Improved Council category at the LGC Awards.

It comes after the council launched a programme of change in 2021 aiming to deliver improvements for residents and modernise working practices.

Cllr Doug Pullen, leader of Lichfield District Council, said:

> “We’ve improved the way the council is structured and led, and have worked hard to create a strong ‘can do’ ethos across the workforce.  
>  
> “Our officers have embraced these changes and we’re benefitting enormously from this internally.  
>  
> “Of course, the most important beneficiaries of our improvement must be our residents.  
>  
> “We have more to do – we want to be a council our residents are proud of. We know which services still need improvement and our chief executive is focused on ensuring those services improve.”   
>  
> Cllr Doug Pullen, Lichfield District Council

The winners will be announced at a ceremony in London in June.
