Nottingham City Council has announced it will be holding a public event this week to give residents more details on its financial difficulties.

The local authority, which issued a Section 114 last month, published last week its proposals for closing a £53.7m budget gap for 2024-25.

These included cutting 554 full-time equivalent posts through ‘a targeted voluntary redundancy approach’.

The city council has announced it will be holding an engagement event at the Council House to give people a chance to hear from councillors and officers on the proposals and to ask questions.
