I have a potted lavender, ice blue I think It's called, which looks a bit sad. I think it needs a bit of a hair cut but am worried it might be to late for it. It still has the flowers from last year on it.

Trim it back now but not too hard and not into old wood-consider taking cuttings as well.
Could it be pot bound?
This link will concur with Geoff's comment
Don't think it is potbound. Potted it up last year to a quite big a pot. I'll give it a light trim and try to take some cuttings.
In my opinion, dont worry about cutting into old wood. Ive has three lavenders in a large terracota container for over 4 years. 2years ago, I took them back to an inch of their life - they bounced back like new. Will do same this year.
That is good to know. Might do that to one side in the hope it rejuvenates the centre.
