Making the Case for Trading Standards


Making the Case for Trading Standards

At the ³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ (³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ), we know the true value of Trading Standards more than anyone. We also know how important it is to make the argument for investment in Trading Standards services in an era when Local Authorities have to make difficult budgetary decisions every year.

Our new TS InfographicsÌý

In the immediate wake of the UK General Election, this is the perfect time to shout loud about the great work of the profession - as we have a new Labour government in power that will be wanting to make their mark both locally and nationally.

³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ has assembled a series of infographics to help you make the case for Trading Standards at your Local Authority, with your key stakeholders, MPs, Councillors and among the public at large.

Take a look at the 'Making the Case' infographics (available in both English and Welsh) at the bottom of this page. We ask that you share the infographics on social media and, if you work in Local Government, across your Local Authority.

³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ is running these messages through our online platforms to get the message out about the true value of Trading Standards by #MakingtheCase.
