Further advice or help
If you have been through all three stages of the complaints procedure and you are still not happy with our replies, you can appeal to the Local Government Ombudsman.
The Local Government Ombudsman investigates complaints of unfair treatment caused by bad management by local government and certain other organisations. They can investigate complaints about how something has been done. However, they can only investigate what has been done if there is evidence of bad management.
