the state of local government comms

May 29, 2014 Darren Caveney

Great work is being delivered, despite the huge challenges, but what is the state of local government comms in 2014?

by Dan Slee

Local government communications has always been a tricky gig but it's never been harder to deliver effectively than right now.
On the one hand there is £20 billion worth of cuts and on the other there is a need to explain the changes – and improvements – to residents.

We are staging a quick survey of local government comms people to find out more about the challenges they face.

We'll present the findings at the Public Sector Communications Academy taking place in Manchester from June 11 to 13.

So, if you work in the sector what are the challenges you face?

- Delivering effective hybrid social media and traditional comms campaigns?

- Having the regular evaluation analytics to convince the chief executive and Leader that you are delivering real change?

- Having enough boots on the ground?

- Having enough budget?

- Having a resident newsletter?

It’ll only take two-three minutes so please have your say here.

We'll share the results at the Academy and really hope to see you there.

For more info on the Academy and to register to attend click here.
