About us

From 1 April 2019, BCP Council is responsible for all local government services in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. We provide services to around 400,000 residents from Hamworthy and Broadstone in the west to Highcliffe in the east - the twelfth largest resident population of any council in England. This scale means a higher percentage of our budget can be spent on frontline services, and less on management overheads and back-office support. As a new, large council, only created in April 2019, we have an opportunity to think as one area for business, growth, and the prosperity of all who live here. Our scale means we can more easily plan for, bid for and win extra funding for things that are important to the people who live and work in BCP, such as housing, roads and schools. We’re going through a period of great change – reviewing how we deliver services and how we make sure this fantastic area of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole continues to thrive.

    Get to know the PSPO 🤔🌲🌊 Our teams are enhancing the enforcement of Coastal and Open Spaces Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPOs), designed to ensure our region can be enjoyed by everyone. 🤝 🛡️ They aim to boost public safety, tackle anti-social behaviour and protect natural environments. The Coastal PSPO covers all 15 miles of BCP coastline, while the Open Spaces PSPO covers designated parks and green spaces. Breaking the conditions of a PSPO could land you with a £100 fine. ❌ 🔗 To learn more, including what's not allowed and where, click the link: https://lnkd.in/e7A_6fuj
