Local Community Networks (LCNs) What are they?

Local Community Networks (LCNs) What are they?

A new local consultative body has been set up as the District Councils were phased out to form one unitary Somerset Council. LCNs have a range of local representatives, including your local Parish Council, and are an additional forum and ‘voice’ for our communities. They’re about engagement and improving outcomes for residents through establishing strong connections between Somerset Council, our nearby Parish Councils, communities, businesses and our partners. There are 18 LCNs rolled-out, covering every corner of the new local authority area. Ditcheat is in Area 10.
