Basildon Council Warm Home Guarantee Campaign to Protect Borough Pensioners this Winter
The council has allocated £100,000 to help 1,000 pensioner households with energy bills as community urged to come together to ensure pensioners receive vital support. Basildon Council is calling on the entire community to get involved and help ensure pensioners have access to these vital services. Together, we can make sure no one is left out in the cold this winter.

Budget Consultation 2025/26
Each year, the council must set a budget that balances spending on services with the resources available. We want to hear your views on how the council spends its money and how it might raise more money to pay for services and initiatives.

The consultation closes on Sunday 27 October 2024. Have your say - Budget Consultation 2025/26 (opens new window)
