This page of the FOI Directory lists all of the Freedom of Information email addresses for the UK’s district, borough and city councils.

From major cities to small borough councils you will find more than 400 local councils’ FOI contact details below.

However a more practical list which has all county councils separated from the bulk of other councils can be found here. This list would be more useful for those wanting to compare certain functions and tasks undertaken by County Councils.


You can download/view a Google Spreadsheet with all the councils’ FOI contact details here.
