Why local governments come to us
Local governments come to Purple for strategic and practical support that works with their unique role at the heart of the community. We know councils face pressure to deliver more for their residents, the challenge of engaging effectively on sensitive local issues, and the need to advocate for their community’s interests with other tiers of government. Whether you need to build a compelling case for funding, consult with your community on a new project, or upskill your team, we provide expert, tailored support that respects your connection to the people you serve.
How we support
We partner with cities, shires, and regional councils to help them meet their strategic objectives. Our work includes developing advocacy strategies to secure project funding, creating place-branding narratives to attract investment and tourism, planning and facilitating robust community consultation, and delivering bespoke training for councillors and staff in areas like media engagement and the ethical use of AI. We provide support that is scaled and priced for the local government context.
