The Communities Directorate brings together a range of services which deliver directly to/with communities and works to improve our local connections to provide an increasingly responsive, coordinated public service with and for our residents.

How do we do this?

The Communities Directorate is separated into the following areas:

It comprises the Contact Centre, Customer Service Centres, Registration, Escalation & Resolution, Information Management & Requests, Online Services, and Financial Wellbeing & Revenues.
