Even some of rutlanda smallest parish councils grant money to an essential service such as the rutland citizens advice bureau.
Oakham town council turned down this years grant application from the citizens advice bureau.
The reason given was insufficient funds were available.
Perhaps if they had not given out the bulk of the funds to orgnaizations run by councillors and friends. They might have had some remaining to fund this very important public service.
Of course the recent benefit changes and housing changes don't affect the elite who made those decisions and they clearly won't be requiring the services of the citizens advice bureau.
So once again oakham town council show how out of touch it is with the community as is splashes out on hundreds of hanging baskets 4 oakham in bloom and other non essential activities.
