Building Cohesion and Trust in London - A Social Marketing Approach

Capital Ambition is a consortium of London local authorities concerned with modernisation and service transformation of public services. It wished to develop new approaches to tackling the issue of low trust and poor community cohesion. The Campaign Company, a social marketing and community engagement consultancy were commissioned to gather insight into the communities as well as make recommendations as to potential interventions. This work in progress is based the preliminary results of completed Capital Ambition cohesion research projects in 4 boroughs and data from ongoing cohesion interventions in one borough. Specific reports on local research findings have been produced for all four boroughs and these also give a full explanation of the research methodology for these projects.
