Connected Places – collection prospectus
Improving the quality of life in our communities
This is a prospectus for our Connected Places collection work.
At a place-based level, public services have for many years been inherently fragmented. Local public services modelling and planning can no longer be confined to single or even groupings of public sector organisations with a ‘producer-led’ mentality; they need to start with people, locations, and communities.
This briefing is to introduce our new ‘Connected Places’ collection. The focus will be on how technology and data can be used to make more and better connections to enable and empower Socitm’s members to play their role in supporting and transforming the resilience of communities, public service, organisations, and the people that they serve in their communities.
