Consultation on Hampshire County Council’s Budget for 2027-2028

Hampshire County Council is currently asking residents to share their views on its proposed budget for 2026/27. The consultation, which runs until 7 December, invites people across the county to comment on potential service changes and the financial challenges facing local government.

The feedback gathered will help the Council understand how its proposals may affect residents, service users, and community organisations. All responses will be carefully analysed and used to shape the final budget decisions, which are due to be considered in early 2026.

Residents can review the full information pack, explore the data behind the proposals, and submit their views through the online response form. Easy‑read versions are also available to ensure the consultation is accessible to everyone.

This is an important opportunity to influence how local services are funded and delivered in the year ahead. If you live, work, or study in Hampshire, your perspective matters.
