Huge savings, which will affect residents in places like Christchurch, Wimborne and Wareham - are being considered today by Dorset County Council.

They need to cut spending by another five-point-seven million pounds next year, as part of a twenty-eight million saving by April.

They hope most can be achieved by being more efficient and collaborating with other councils - but some services will be affected, like mental health and careers advice for young people.
