Qwizdom Already Working In A Big Society
David Cameron announced this week his vision of a Big Society, a drive to empower communities. It turns out Qwizdom has long been involved in empowering communities long before the Big Society moniker.
From Housing Associations to Resident Involvement Groups to Community Engagement Initiatives, Qwizdom has been used and is being used to empower communities. Tower Hamlets used Qwizdom’s Audience Response Systems to enable 800 residents to decide what they wanted to spend council money on.
Close to 70 Housing Associations, such as Derby Homes, Barnet Homes & Croydon, use Qwizdom to engage with their residents, with a view to finding out what residents want from their Housing Association.
Community Engagement officers from countless local authorities use Qwizdom on a daily basis to engage with their local communities.
These organisations use Qwizdom’s interactive voting for a number of reasons. The RF technology allows up to 1000 participants to get involved; voting is anonymous; results are available real-time, meaning audience members can see what they voted for; post session, results are collated automatically – no more time spent collecting handsheets, entering data onto excel and publishing; up to 10 different question types are available including multiple choice, alpha-numeric, text, true/false, demographic.
