The 2026 Local Authority Counter Fraud Survey: NOW LIVE!

Your Feedback

Feedback from local authorities through the NAFN 2025 Counter Fraud Survey identified a clear need for deeper insight, stronger evidence and more practical guidance.

Developed in partnership with local authorities, this year’s survey provides a more detailed picture of the fraud risks, emerging threats and challenges facing the sector. All responses will remain anonymous.
