Support with domestic abuse
If you are experiencing domestic abuse, help is available. Major sporting events can be a difficult time for some people. If you are worried about your own safety, or that of someone you know, confidential support and advice are available on our domestic abuse page.
The capital programme forms part of our medium term financial strategy.
What is capital?
Spending can be classed as capital if the item or asset purchased has a life of more than one year. This can include buying or maintaining fixed assets such as buildings, roads, plant or equipment. Examples of capital schemes are highways maintenance, school improvements and investment in faster broadband.
How do we pay for our capital spending?
We fund our capital programme through grants, borrowing and capital receipts from the sale of assets such as property. We also sometimes fund capital projects from our revenue budgets.
