Principles met

  • Co-production

    We will develop systems that enable citizens to be equal partners in designing and commissioning public services and in determining the use of public resources.

  • Innovation

    We will embrace innovation in how we work with local communities to drive positive change.

  • New models of meeting priority needs

    In exploring new ways of meeting the priority needs of our communities we will encourage models, such as co-operatives and mutuals, which give greater influence and voice to staff and users. in designing and commissioning public services and in determining the use of public resources.

LocalGov Drupal is a collaboration between over 34 local councils from across the UK and Ireland.

It’s a public digital asset, created by councils, for councils. As more councils participate the greater its value. This stretches beyond simply the platform itself and into our shared pool of user research and expertise.

Together we’ve developed a best-practice, open-source publishing platform that is freely available to all councils.

Many councils have already built their website using our platform. These include Barking and Dagenham, Milton Keynes and Croydon Council.

 

The problem we’re solving

398 UK councils are each rebuilding their main websites every 3-5 years. The user needs are largely the same, but councils don’t swap notes or collaborate, instead creating expensive standalone solutions to shared problems. LocalGov Drupal is the antidote to this.
