"Demos has created a Coping with the Cuts Index that measures how different local authorities are managing their social care and support budgets for children, adults and older people.
"You can see how well your own council has done by selecting the name of your local authority in the drop down line above or by clicking on the map itself.
"We could have ranked local authorities by their budget cuts, but we wanted to recognise those councils who are protecting their front line services from the cuts. That is why we are focusing on how councils are coping with the cuts and highlighting innovation.
All above from "About" on the Demos website.
