Hackney named most improved Council

Last month the Audit Commission said that Hackney could maintain its 3 star rating and noted the Council was still "improving strongly".

This month Hackney was named winner at the Local Government Chronicle Awards 2009 and won the title of 'Most Improved Council'.

It's good that Hackney is making the headlines for the right reasons and improvements are now being recognised .. but there's still much more to do.
