The Council and democracy Budget consultation 2026/27

Corporate Budgets

  • Budget this current financial year: £99.050 million
  • £8.574 million value for money options from Corporate budgets over three years.

How we spend this budget

These budgets fund frontline services for residents including customer service, coroners and registrars.

They also help us support people’s housing costs and provide welfare for Manchester residents in need. They support voluntary organisations, culture and other projects.

They fund our technology and computer service and the costs of running and looking after council buildings.

And they support all council services with essentials like finance and auditing, buying and capital spending, personnel and legal work. They drive improvements and innovations and fund our democratic function.
