Join our Transformation and Behaviour Change Leads group – a network of council officers working in behaviour change who meet to discuss developments in the transformation and behavioural insights landscape. Learn new techniques, network, and hear from guest speakers about new trials, results, and notable practice.
Who we are
Our Transformation and Behaviour Change Leads group supports officers who are working on behavioural change projects, with subjects ranging from public health to climate, environment, and waste to name a few.
What we do
Across the country, behavioural insights have been used across public services to generate low-cost interventions to improve service outcomes. The approach is based on the idea that interventions aimed at encouraging people to make better choices for themselves, and society will be more successful if they are based on insights from behavioural science.
The group provides councils with the space to share support, opportunities, and notable practice within the transformation and behavioural insights agenda.
The secretariat function is held by the LGA and the network is led by:
Chair: Angela Fletton, Head of Behavioural Insights, Suffolk County Council.
Vice Chair: Lucy Gate, Public Health Principal, Surrey County Council.
Several subgroups have been set up by council officers, including:
Transport Behaviour sub group
Chair: Mark Collins, Head of Future Transport, Transport for West Midlands
Measuring Impact sub group
Chair: Angela Fletton, Head of Behavioural Insights, Suffolk County Council.
Tacking Loneliness and Social isolation through behaviour change sub group
Chair: Helayna Jenkins, Principal Loneliness Champion, London Borough of Bromley.
