Lewisham discussions highlight town hall debates over possible future role of mutuals

By David Bicknell

Evidence is emerging of ongoing talks taking place  within councils over the possible mutualisation of services.

This blog post from Liberal Democrat councillor Alex Feakes references work on mutualism that Lewisham Council has done in South London. This debate, which has been covered on the Sydenham Town Forum and in the South London Press, is a useful snapshot of  policy discussions over mutuals that could follow up and down the country.
