The Total Place approach in Leicester and Leicestershire has been a positive experience that has identified real and significant service improvement and saving opportunities for the place.
It has been achieved through considerable collaborative working across administrative and organisational boundaries in the place, with other pilots working on similar themes, and with colleagues in Whitehall.
This is reflected in a comment made at a recent Public Service Board;
“Total Place needs to stop being something we find time to do, on top of the day job, and instead become how we all do our day jobs.”
Our ambition to improve our place needs to be matched and enabled by changes at Government level.
