Home About You Choose

conversation,tab

You Choose is a budget simulator that encourages you to consider where savings can be made.

The concept was originally developed by the London Borough of Redbridge to engage its citizens in the difficult decisions that may arise from a potential reductions to its revenue budget.

In partnership with YouGov and the Local Government Association, You Choose is being made available to other councils so they can engage their citizens in decisions about council spending. 

You Choose will also provide a permanent data bank.  This will enable councils to update the data as decisions are taken and budgets  change. 

This data, minus anything which might identify individuals,  will also be published in its raw format and will be available either to download or via a live data feed.

Sending a written response

If you would like to send a written response use the link called "Suggestions?" in YouChoose or you can send an email to: Conversation2012@redbridge.gov.uk. You have until Wednesday 29 February.

The Council will consider all responses at Budget Council on 1 March 2012, though any suggestions for saving money received after that will still be considered for making future savings.
