Council HR and Governance Support
Council Consultancy 

Ensuring best practice and continuous improvement

The ethos of Council HR and Governance Support (CHRGS) is to provide Local Councils with expert support to enable clients to achieve success through our associates who have done the day job. The overall objective is to support our clients to be more effective and efficient, but at the same time to take care of the welfare of all who work there, and to ensure relationships prosper for the benefit of the local community. 
 
We are dedicated to ensuring best practice and continuous improvement in the local Council sector. Our passion is to work collaboratively with Councils to help them to achieve their full potential and ambitions. 
 
We have access to a wide range of expertise to ensure we can support clients in all areas, and we uphold a commitment to provide sustainable solutions that will deliver results, not just a diagnosis of problems.
