What's your experience of trying to access support from your local authority / council like?

Accessing support from local authority or council can really be depending on where you are and what kind of help you're looking for.

For example a positive experience

* community services: councils sometimes run or fund helpful local services like food banks, mental health support, or advice centres.

Negative experience

*Long waiting times: whether it's on phone lines , housing application or any appointments the waiting can be frustrating .
