Forest Heath District Council was
awarded two Beacon Council status awards
in 2006. A Beacon Council is one that leads the way
in specific fields of work.
The first award recognised the work we had undertaken on recycling,
in partnership with Suffolk County Council and district and borough
councils in the county.
The second award was for our work within the Anglia Revenues
Partnership. This partnership was formed by Forest
Heath and Breckland Council in Norfolk to provide a joint
Council Tax and Benefits service to our residents. Since
receiving the award, East Cambridgeshire has also joined the
partnership.
