Cannock Chase Council has reached a major milestone as Cabinet approves the Cannock Chase Local Plan 2018–2040 and recommend its adoption to Full Council.

This marks the culmination of seven years of detailed preparation, extensive consultation and rigorous independent examination.

To mark the launch of the Great British Spring Clean 2026, enthusiastic volunteers from Littleton Green Community School and South Staffordshire College Support to Learn rolled up their sleeves last week to help tidy Ravenhill Park in Brereton, Rugeley.

Cannock Chase Council is celebrating a significant milestone after appointing its first female operative through its apprenticeship programme.

Joanne Walker, 43, has secured a full-time role as a multi skilled operative - plumber within the Council’s Housing Maintenance Team, marking a milestone in the Council’s drive to support women into traditionally male-dominated trades.
