Description

Part 4 of Whose Town is it Anyway? Examines two very different philosophies for changing the way Councils provide their services to the public. In Wandsworth the Conservative philosophy of privatisation is being put into practice services like refuse, street cleaning and maintenance are contracted out to private firms, and in Walsall a group of Labour councillors reorganised the housing department into 32 neighbourhood offices to make the services more personal and accessible to the local communities.

One of a series of eight programmes focussing on the economic and political crises which faced our towns and cities and how local councils, voluntary groups and the communities most affected, struggled to make their voices heard.
