ePetitions
Providing more effective engagement channels for your local community through online democracy
The ePetitions solution provides an online democratic capability through which members of the public can engage more effectively with their local council, enabling compliance with the forthcoming Local Democracry, Economic Development and Construction Bill.
As we shift towards empowering citizens and ensuring that they have the opportunity to influence local policy and community issues, local authorities need to provide interested members of the public the opportunity to debate, collaborate on and influence local decisions that affect them.
Our ePetitions solution enables local councils to provide a fully branded ePetitions capability on their website, which allows:
- Local citizens to:
- View active petitions that concern them
- Sign petitions
- Request and create new petitions
- Local councils to combine off and on-line processes to:
- Review and approve petition requests
- Process signatures and comments
- Report on, analyse and respond to petitions
As a fully hosted solution, implementing ePetitions requires no technical resources from the council. You will be provided with an eLearning video to familiarise your users with the facilities and how to use it, and the service is fully supported by the Limehouse helpdesk whenever you need us.
