Welcome to Improvement east

The economic reality now is that authorities have to provide services with significantly reduced funding and resources.   Local services need to innovate and transform to respond to more constrained public spending and an increased demand for higher quality, more personalised services. That's why Improvement East is here to help.

Who are we?

We are a partnership of authorities in the East of England - councils and fire and rescue services. We also work closely with partners in health, police and the voluntary sector.  We are politically led and part of the East of England Local Government Association.  

We are run by authorities for authorities, providing free support and returnable investment to enable them to build their capacity to improve and transform service outcomes and levels of efficiency.  

How can we help?

Our team supports authorities and their partners to improve performance, achieve efficiencies and transform services.  

We can help to:

• Save money and maximise return on investment - we have a great track record of delivery cashable savings, saving the tax payer £9 in every £1 spent.
• Generate new ideas - we are at the forefront of challenging issues working across organisational boundaries, leading new thinking and helping you learn from others to innovate and transform the way you do things.
• Turn ideas into delivery - we turn creative thinking and insight into delivery by finding the right solutions to complex challenges.
• Deliver improved outcomes - we concentrate on activities which not only drive efficiencies but also achieve better and more sustainable outcomes for citizens, communities and businesses.
