LGcomms is on the lookout for the next generation of people who will be shaping the profession and leading public sector communications. Is it you?

Five years ago I thought being a Head of Communications wasn’t something for me. In fact, the idea was completely daunting. When the opportunity came for me to take on the role at the Council I was working for I was lucky enough to have a brilliant group of peers around me to provided support and advice as I took on the challenge.

Last year I was given the chance to get involved with the LGcomms Future Leaders programme which is designed exactly to help and support people in the situation I was in five years ago.
