Connecting Policy and Delivery in Sheffield
Ministers have announced a new grassroots approach to policymaking for the opportunity mission, focusing on South Yorkshire.
To enhance policy and delivery, the government has launched initiatives like the "Community Mission Challenge".
- The challenge involves three government campuses: Darlington, Leeds, and Sheffield.
- Each campus works on one of Prime Minister Keir Starmer's "missions" in conjunction with local authorities and academics.
The "Community Mission Challenge" was launched by then-Cabinet Office minister Georgia Gould in June.
The goal is to get civil service policy professionals "away from their desks" and onto the front line of service delivery.
