Digital Community Hub
Changing the way you engage with the community. Keep in touch with surveys, secure messaging and posting. Ensuring communication is simple.
The Digital Community Hub is being used by local authorities throughout the UK to support and help teams to keep in touch with the community. Communicate and engage with users through a secure messaging portal, post ‘social media’ styled updates in real-time and send bespoke surveys.
Co-produced through a series of engagement and participation workshops, the hub is available on both desktop iOS and Android mobile phone operating systems and in multiple languages.
The communication hub includes three communication and engagement tools in one, to help you keep in touch and gather the thoughts of your young people, families and parents. Changing the way local authorities and organisations engage.
