Our values

Adaptable

No two local authorities are the same; you need flexible solutions that can adapt to your needs and scale to remain innovative and efficient. We don’t do copy and paste installations; we listen to what you need and adapt.

Citizen-centred

We advocate for citizens in the design of our solutions, striking a balance between the needs of authorities, your staff and the citizens you serve to ensure everyone enjoys the best possible experience.

Collaborative

Our solutions are designed to integrate with any combination of systems, and our delivery processes facilitate collaboration with multiple teams and third party organisations to ensure transparent communication.

Experienced

We have been developing and running open source, public-facing digital services for over 20 years; we have a robust understanding of what local and public authorities need to provide an efficient and intuitive service for citizens.

Open

Our software is open source. We believe open source software is essential to improving tools for society as a whole, reducing the barriers to entry in terms of accessing useful software and ensuring the longevity of services.

Purposeful

We are a not for profit organisation, owned by the charity mySociety. By working with us you unlock social value and impact supporting wider civic improvements across the UK, and even internationally.
