Lichfield Spring Food & Drink Festival
A festival of food is returning to the city this weekend – and it’s all about flavour, community, and local pride. Taking place throughout the city on Saturday 16 & Sunday 17 May.
Keeping council tax low
We keep around 9% of the council tax you pay to deliver services, including bins, parks, planning, housing support, environmental health and more. The average household will pay 8p more a week towards our services this year.
Cost of living & wellbeing drop in!
Drop in for free advice from council teams and local partners, all in one accessible place. If you need support with bills, benefits, housing, wellbeing, or everyday challenges, come and talk to us on 21 May, 10am–12pm at Lichfield District Council House.
