Many important actions are played out as a result of decisions taken by local government. These actions affect our everyday lives far more than the big decisions made in Westminster and Whitehall. Councils that wish to justify the rate of council tax will do well to inform the voting public how their taxes are being spent. Professionally designed and printed information documents are a direct way of keeping the public informed of council spending policies.
Communicating with the Public
Sometimes, key information about council services needs to be delivered to every household. You can’t rely on everyone to visit the council website to find out what days their bins are being collected or which social services they may be entitled to. Imaginative county councils use methods such as direct marketing to communicate with service users.
Norwich Refuse Collection Services
The residents of Norwich get an annual printed update attached to their bin. The flyer contains all the collection date information for the year – plus the latest on what can and can’t be collected for recycling. The flyer is distributed by the refuse collectors and has been shaped so that it can easily hang on the handle of a bin. The card is waterproof so that it doesn’t wind up a soggy mess if it is raining on distribution day!
