What's happening
We spend £1.2 billion each year across vital services – but rising costs mean we must save at least £15 million next year. For the first time, you will be able to set your own Newcastle People’s Budget in advance of us publishing proposals, to show us how you think your money should be spent on the services we provide.
What we would like you to do
Take part now – it only takes a few minutes. Here's the link: Newcastle People's Budget 2025
What happens next
Your input will help guide the real decisions councillors must take this winter, so if you don’t like how we spend your money, this is your chance to tell us.
