Don’t miss on your chance to take part in a consultation about plans to raise council tax by four per cent.

The rise would mean that a household in Council Tax Band D who paid £1,354.03 last year would see their council tax bill increase by £54.02 to £1,408.56 this year.

Have your say by heading to Chadwell Heath Community Library on Friday from 5.30pm or Barking and Dagenham College on Friday next week from 2.30pm to 4pm.
