  44. Lambeth Cooperative CouncilMake most of community’s assets

  45. We sought views on: • Principles • How the council and citizens should work together • What would encourage citizens to be part of the cooperative council

  46. We found: • Local state needs to support and enable; not just ‘do’ • Local people need a strong voice in the design of services/activities • Local state should encourage communities to secure services/activities • Local state needs to invest in the infrastructure to make this happen • Public services should be accessible

  47. What we have learnt: • Managing risk • Practical issues around governance, citizen engagement and accountability • Harnessing the energies and assets of communities • Building capacity • HR, IT and procurement become enabling not just regulatory functions
