Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council, GB streamlines help for the vulnerable with Citizen Space

Call center staffers used ad-hoc methods to document public contacts before COVID-19. Rochdale created internal surveys for incoming and follow-up calls in Citizen Space. Survey responses allowed the council to identify hotspots of adult care needs during the pandemic. PDF copies of survey responses were sent to the appropriate departments or organizations, thus ensuring personalized care for vulnerable residents.

Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council, GB pilots smart bins that reduce waste management costs

Two Mr. Fill bins are being evaluated near Hollingworth Lake. Each bin contains sensors that evaluate waste levels in real time. An onboard compactor creates up to 70% more capacity until the bin is full. The bin door automatically locks at capacity and a message is sent to the council's waste management team for collection. Mr. Fill bins are powered entirely by solar energy. This pilot will determine impacts on park cleanliness and personnel needs prior to expanded use.
