Preview shows the map slide in Editorial, Mono, Slate.
Every template has the same eight slides
- Cover — the map's name and theme, on a slide you can put your own title over.
- Editing guide — ungroup, recolour, regroup, in three steps and without plugins.
- The map — every area at one flat colour, the blank starting point for your own shading.
- Reference map — all 11 combined authorities named, each carrying its GSS code, so nothing has to be looked up.
- Data map — five shaded classes and a legend, ready for your own figures instead of the sample ones.
- Spotlight — the largest few by area emphasised and the rest muted, for a single clear point.
- Working with the data — a data hand-off table.
- Source and licence — the boundary release, the publisher and the licence, printed on the slide so the deck carries its own provenance.

About this template
England's combined authorities as editable shapes, each with the GSS code it is identified by. They are not a tier of local government: the councils inside them keep their own boundaries and their own figures, so the two geographies rarely match.
Typical use: Transport, skills and investment reporting, and any funding submission addressed to a combined authority rather than to a council.
Areas included
All 11 combined authorities are in the file:
Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, East Midlands, Greater Manchester, Liverpool City Region, North East, South Yorkshire, Tees Valley, West Midlands, West of England, West Yorkshire, York and North Yorkshire.

Questions
England Combined Authorities — questions before you buy
How is this different from the map chart built into PowerPoint?
The map chart built into Microsoft 365 and Office 2019 or later looks places up through Bing Maps and stops at country level for the UK, so it cannot draw local authority districts, council areas or wards. These maps are ordinary PowerPoint shapes built from the ONS boundary files: nothing is looked up, every level below country is covered, and any area can be recoloured, relabelled or deleted on its own.
What does this combined authority map show?
This is the combined authority map of England. 11 combined authorities — all in England. Every one is a separate shape that can be filled, labelled or deleted on its own, and the same boundaries are used on the map, the labelled reference slide and the data slide, so nothing shifts between them.
What is a combined authority?
A body formed by two or more English councils to take on powers devolved from central government — transport, skills, housing, economic strategy, sometimes with an elected mayor. Eleven have boundaries in this release. They overlap the local authority districts rather than replacing them, so district figures still need the district map.
What kind of data can I show on this map?
Anything published at combined authority level: devolved funding, transport and skills spending, or economic strategy indicators. Classify your figures into five bands and recolour by class — the data slide is already a five-step legend you can keep or replace — and the data hand-off slide lists every GSS code against its area name, ready to paste your figures next to.
How do I link my own data to the map?
Each shape is named after its area and carries its ONS GSS code, the identifier statistics are published against. Every code here begins E47, the ONS prefix for combined authorities. Join on the code rather than on names: authority names repeat across the UK, get respelt by different publishers, and change when councils reorganise, while the code stays with the area.
Which boundary release is this based on?
Office for National Statistics boundaries, May 2024 release, full resolution, clipped to the coastline. They are published under the Open Government Licence, which permits commercial use and requires two credit lines wherever the material is reproduced — both are already printed on the source slide of every deck.
Is there a wider or a more detailed map of this area?
The United Kingdom Countries map is the wider view.
Who uses these maps?
Local government and public sector analysts, NHS and police planning teams, consultants and market researchers, property and site-selection teams, campaign and public affairs staff, and anyone who needs a UK map in a report, a bid or a presentation.
Does it work in Google Slides?
Yes. Upload the .pptx to Drive and open it with Google Slides. The files contain only shapes, solid fills and Arial, and no animation, SmartArt, chart or embedded media, which are the elements an importer drops or converts.
Can I print the map?
Yes. The artwork is vector, so a map stays sharp at poster size, and the themes are built so that the lightest shade still separates from the slide background in print.
