In our latest blog, we explore how councils can spot these community signals and use them to communicate more clearly and confidently.

90% of councils we worked with last week are already using AI. But only 1 in 10 have a clear strategy. That gap is where the real risk and opportunity sits.

Data protection shouldn’t feel overwhelming - but for many councils, it does. Policies get out of date. Processes become unclear. And staying compliant can quickly slip down the priority list. Our Data Protection Toolkit is designed to change that. It gives your council the structure, guidance and support needed to: • Keep policies up to date • Reduce risk and avoid common pitfalls • Stay compliant with confidence All without adding more pressure to your team. Because good data protection isn’t about ticking boxes - it’s about doing things properly, consistently and with confidence.
