Commonplace: Who we are

In a nutshell, Commonplace identifies what matters to communities. It pinpoints the key locations and topics local people are talking about, making it easy to integrate feedback into planning decisions.

We have the vision to connect people to places in order to accelerate positive change. We are passionate about giving people a meaningful voice in contributing to changes to their neighbourhood.

What we do is to power positive participation:

  • Learn about Commonplace near you via social media or sign up for updates.
  • Shape your area's future by giving your opinion and supporting others.
  • Co-Create as part of a transparent process with evidence-based decisions.
  • Feedback you'll never miss. Stay updated with progress and trends

We have developed a proven methodology to achieve all of the above, which has been used on over 1,300 projects, by 4 million people. We offer a cloud-based application together with state-of-the-art support and advice on using digital technology in public engagement. We have learnt that one of the biggest values we offer to customers and communities is maximised via friendly, proactive and transparent support.

"Our bid was voted 8th out of the 75 that were approved in England. 305 were submitted in total. We definitely think our success is down to the quality of the community engagement that occurred."
