Local Government Association Corporate Peer Challenge (CPC)

From 20 September to 3 October 2025, the Local Government Association (LGA) carried out a Corporate Peer Challenge of Buckinghamshire Council.

This was the first Corporate Peer Challenge since we became unitary in 2020.

A Corporate Peer Challenge is a tool offered by the LGA to independently review areas such as our:

  • local priorities and outcomes
  • organisational and place leadership
  • governance and culture
  • financial planning and management
  • capacity for improvement
