Nudge Community Builders’ Post

Last week we hosted our first Data & Stories Day with Plymouth Octopus (POP). The room was filled with community organisations, health, housing, planning, data, community safety specialists alongside academics and our local Councillor Alison Raynsford. Really rich and thoughtful discussions took place after hearing about how data is used in health settings, how stories are collected by Belong In Plymouth and how Stonehouse Community Builders listen to local people. Nudge put crime, transport, empty building and health data out on the street in really creative ways - experiencing the data in this visual way in situ prompted a wide range of reactions, reflections and conversations about the power of data, the risks, benefits and care that is needed to share data with in communities and how it can be used to raise awareness, sign post and connect people. Very much a start of collaborating together with services, sharing experiences and understanding how data is used to make decisions in good and not so good ways. More on this next year as we host events for local people and build on these connections. So watch this space!
