Wolverhampton named as local authority of the year

The City of Wolverhampton Council was named Local Authority of the Year at The MJ Awards last night.

The City of Wolverhampton was also named winner in three other categories, Most Improved Council, Senior Leadership Team and Excellence in Governance and Scrutiny.
