## What is the Digital Noticeboard

Our Digital Noticeboard is a managed platform for publishing and distributing community information, local events, and service updates in accessible formats across digital and print channels. Designed for organisations that need to communicate consistently with a diverse community — including those with lower digital confidence, limited mobility, or communication preferences that span print, screen, and in-person — the platform creates a single, managed source of truth that feeds every channel.

## One source, every channel

### Single source of truth

Manage all community information from one place, eliminating the inconsistency of maintaining multiple separate channels. Partner organisations contribute directly to the shared environment.

### Multi-channel distribution

Publish once and distribute across digital screens, websites, print, and partner networks simultaneously — reaching your community in every format they use.

### Accessible formats

Information is structured and formatted to meet accessibility standards, with uniform cards that are recognisable in both print and digital form.

### Partner contributions

Service providers and community organisations can contribute their own listings directly, distributing the management effort and keeping information current across the network.

## Reach your community everywhere

### Accessible Information Design

Every listing uses our uniform service card design — a consistent, recognisable format that works across digital and print contexts, structured to include the information users need to act.

### Multi-Channel Publishing

Publish information once and have it appear wherever your community looks for it — digital noticeboards, web listings, printable cards, and partner communications systems.

### Partner and Provider Network

Enable community organisations and service providers to contribute their own events and resources. Simple submission interfaces with approval workflows maintain quality as the network grows.

### Event and Campaign Management

Manage time-limited events and recurring activities alongside permanent service listings. Supports event-based content with specific dates, times, and locations.

### Geospatial Mapping

Surface noticeboard listings on an interactive map, helping community members find opportunities and services that are local and accessible to them.

### Engagement Analytics

Understand how your community engages with the noticeboard — which listings attract most interest, which channels are most used, and where there are gaps between information published and community needs.

## Trusted information at scale

### Consistent, trusted information

A single source of truth means the same accurate information reaches users across every channel — eliminating the confusion and frustration of out-of-date or inconsistent messaging.

### Reduced management overhead

Distributed content management by partner organisations dramatically reduces the burden on a central team while maintaining quality through approval workflows.

### Greater reach for isolated communities

Multi-format distribution — including print and in-person materials — ensures the noticeboard reaches community members who are not digitally confident or connected.

### Stronger partner relationships

Giving community organisations the tools to promote their own activities builds engagement and investment in the platform — creating a richer information environment for everyone.

## In practice

Our Digital Noticeboard capability underpins the Hackney Circle service for Hackney Council, enabling a network of over 40 cultural and community partners to promote their activities to older residents in consistent, accessible formats. The platform manages the full communications cycle — from partner event submission through to digital and print distribution — reducing the administration burden on the central team while significantly extending the reach of the service.
