Plymouth City Council

‘Building Plymouth’ is a Plymouth City Council-led, private and public sector partnership with the construction and built environment sector aims to reduce the skills gaps and shortages facing the local construction industry. This aims to increase the number of skilled people joining the industry to deliver the 10,000 projected new jobs being created in the city. To support this, the council is accredited as a National Skills Academy for Construction committed to maximising employment and skills opportunities through planning and procurement on construction projects in Plymouth.  During the past 12 months, Building Plymouth has supported over 5,000 local people through their delivery of extensive career events.

The LGA Labour Group exists to fight the corner for Labour councillors at a national level, both within
the cross-party Local Government Association and with the Labour Party at Westminster. The Group provide a strong voice for Labour councillors and act as a platform for ideas and innovation for all those committed to an effective localist element to Labour politics and policies.
