Over the next few years local government faces unprecedented pressures to cut costs, deliver quality services and maintain public confidence. The Recovery Network brings together a group of leading local authorities to work on effective responses to the recession.

We have put together a selection of innovation tools for local government. These are for local authorities seeking to introduce new ways of working that can help them find innovative ways to meet demands on their services.

Innovation Catalyst is a new partnership designed to incubate, generate and spread innovation in local government, helping councils provide better outcomes, smarter services, and greater efficiency.
