Stockport hackathon 2017

This is a Hackathon to assist Stockport citizens to connect with their wider communities.

Stockport Council has trawled the web to find out what people think about Stockport including comments, the things they like, complaints, and enquiries. We also have collated data from citizens with questions such as ‘What do you care about most in Stockport?’ and ‘What image comes to mind when you think of Stockport?’. This combined with our anonymised and aggregated contact centre data means that we have the data regarding what people in or visiting Stockport care about the most.

We would like people of all skill sets to come together to help see what matters to the citizens of Stockport and make it easier for citizens to connect with the things they care about. This can be a bright idea with a well thought out plan, data analytics to help the Council see the source or solution of an issue, or an app/software to help bring people together or make them aware of services or events in the area.
