About us
Secure and fair democracies need engaged and informed citizens. mySociety helps people be active citizens with technology, research and data used by individuals, journalists, and civil society in over 40 countries around the world. We build and share digital technologies across three interlinked practice areas, Democracy, Transparency and Community; each underpinned by research, sector building and appropriate commercial work. Founded in 2003, we are recognised as a global pioneer in the use of online technologies to help citizens perform civic and democratic tasks – helping establish the Civic Technology sector in the process. We work with digital technologies because they lower the barriers to taking the first civic or democratic steps in a citizen’s life, and can connect people and organisations at scale. Our aim is to enhance civic participation for millions of people, making it possible for them to collectively drive changes in the policy and practice of governments, and ultimately contribute to building effective, accountable and inclusive governance and more equitable, democratic and sustainable societies. Keep up with everything we do via our monthly newsletter: we promise it's always interesting. https://tinyurl.com/mysocietynewsletter

Here's what we got up to at the LGA conference last week 👇 Big thanks to everyone who came and chatted to us and had a go at the puzzle! We promise we won't mispronounce 'Erewash' ever again! 😅
Made a fun little video to show what we got up to at the Local Government Association conference last week. Lovely to see lots of old and new faces there 🥰

The flood of comments and memories from people who had the pleasure of working with Helen, on here and in FOI forums, stand testament to just how much she achieved for our community, and the networks she helped build. Our own tribute is at https://lnkd.in/ew54-Uv3
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Executive Director and founder, Helen Darbishire. Helen’s visionary leadership, compassion, and dedication have left a lasting impact on all of us, and her absence will be deeply felt. https://lnkd.in/g9AP8vvb
