New RED project: DEMOCRACY
November 7, 2006, Chris Vanstone

How could MPs better connect with their constituents? That's the question we set out to answer in this latest RED project.

We asked constituents to design their perfect MP; ran a design workshop with 15 MPs in parliament; debated the issues on the Today Programme; and we spent an intensive week working alongside a constituency office in Doncaster to develop a new set of services for MPs.

We published our results in the snappily-titled report, 'Ten practical things every MP can do to rebuild democracy in their constituency', which sets out proposals for new services for MPs, a hansard for constituents and a 'Constitupedia' - a resource of consituency best practice.

There's a short film of the project below and if you're interested in the detail a presentation of our Transformation Design process.
