Currently, Gloucestershire’s local government comprises Gloucestershire County Council alongside six district councils: Gloucester, Cheltenham, Cotswold, Forest of Dean, Stroud, and Tewkesbury. Under government plans to streamline administration, these district authorities are set to merge with the county council, forming one or more unitary authorities responsible for all local services.
