In April 2020, Buckinghamshire Council became a unitary authority, ensuring that the needs of residents in Buckinghamshire are served by a single council. It is an area of outstanding natural beauty and ranks as one of the top rural areas to live in the UK, whilst also being very well connected - only an hour from London on the train. The county has a rich history and heritage and is the birthplace of the international Paralympic movement.
The Integrated Commissioning Service commissions high quality and value for money health, social care, and prevention services to enable Buckinghamshire residents of all ages to access the right services, in the right place at the right time.
