LocalGov Drupal is a publicly owned asset that delivers a better digital experience for citizens, improves service outcomes, and saves money. Our councils have followed the Local Digital Declaration to develop a shared pool of code, resources, research and expertise, delivering great digital experiences to citizens at a lower cost, while creating a publicly owned asset. LocalGov Drupal can reduce the cost of building a new council website by up to 80%. Learn more about the business case. It is built and maintained by a community of developers, content designers and digital leaders from local councils across the UK. Web teams love the freedom, flexibility and community. Find out more about the benefits for web teams. We’ve created a web publishing platform that can be customised and used for free by any local government organisation. It includes common publishing formats, with many inspired by GOV.UK.

🎉 We are always thrilled when a client is happy, but when you’re working with a website built on LocalGov Drupal it's even more exciting, because it’s done in the spirit of collaboration and so many more councils – and people – are going to benefit from it.

I only got one day's contribution to LocalGov Drupal completed this week, but got some really nice work done in that time, as well as some frustrating battles with my local development environment. Thanks to Big Blue Door for sponsoring this time to help make LocalGov Drupal better for everyone, especially with the accessibility fixes we worked on this week. https://lnkd.in/eSWARjDy

Tipperary County Council has been named a finalist in the Build to Share category for the Ireland eGovernment Awards! I’m incredibly proud and honoured to represent Tipperary among such distinguished peers, including Fáilte Ireland, HSE, RTÉ, and many leading councils. These Awards celebrate excellence and innovation in digital government services across Ireland. This recognition is a major highlight of my career and looking forward to the 2024 awards ceremony on September 19th in Dublin.

The world of LocalGov Drupal is certainly not a static one. As councils develop new features these become available for other councils to use on their #LocalGovDrupal websites, and there's been an incredible buzz over the last few months. These are the new additions to this CMS that have us really excited. https://lnkd.in/dn7vMgxe #Websites #CMS #Drupal
