Translate Local Council Correspondence Into Plain Language
A letter from the council lands, full of references and deadlines, and you cannot tell whether it needs action or is just noise. This identifies what kind of notice it is, planning, council tax, enforcement, a benefit review, states the key message in one line, and tells you what you are actually being asked to do. No more letters left unopened on the side.
