The Local Government Association (LGA) is the national voice of local government. We work with councils to support, promote and improve local government.
We are a politically-led, cross-party organisation that works on behalf of councils to ensure local government has a strong, credible voice with national government. We aim to influence and set the political agenda on the issues that matter to councils so they are able to deliver local solutions to national problems.
We are a membership organisation. Our core membership comprises 331 of the 333 councils in England and includes district, county, metropolitan and unitary authorities along with London boroughs and the City of London Corporation. The 22 Welsh unitary councils are in membership via the Welsh Local Government Association.
We also operate an Associate scheme for organisations whose purpose and objectives are aligned with our own. Our Associates include fire and rescue authorities, police, fire and crime commissioners/police and crime commissioners, national park authorities and town and parish councils via the National Association of Local Councils (NALC)’s corporate associate membership.

HELP AND ADVICE
Shelter provides free, confidential advice to people with all kinds of housing problems.
Face-to-face, over the phone and online, we’re committed to giving expert advice and support, tailored to the individual.
FIGHTING FOR CHANGE
Shelter tackles the root causes of the housing crisis by challenging the people in power to make our vision of a home for everyone a reality.
We lobby the government and local authorities for new laws and policies, and more investment, to improve the lives of homeless and badly housed people.
Our influential campaigns bring the reality of the housing crisis to the attention of the media and the public, who help us fight for solutions.
INFORMING PROFESSIONALS
As the UK’s leading housing and homelessness charity, we develop practical solutions to address the housing crisis. We also work with the housing sector to promote good practice, publish reports, and deliver professional training.
