London Advice Sector Data Expedition Day 2019

ADVICE SECTOR DATA EXPEDITION DAY 28th of June

In partnership the Greater London Authority and Advice Services Alliance are hosting an Advice Sector Data Expedition and we’d love for you to join us.

On Friday 28 June @ 9:30am-5pm

Address: Tavis House (1 - 6 Tavistock Square, London, England, United Kingdom)

Data expeditions bring together a multi-disciplinary team from Civil Society organisations, Policy makers, data experts and anyone interested, to gain insight on a chosen topic or theme.

This time we are interested in understanding what existing open datasets about and from London’s advice sector can reveal. To get more of an idea about what a Data Expedition involves, read this blog about the Sports Data Expedition the GLA hosted last year.

The Data Expedition is a space to share skills, learn about new datasets, find tools you can take back and use in your day-to-day work and highlight the potential of data through discovering new insights and developing hypothesis.

The aim for this Data Expedition is to see what can be deduced about the size and shape of the advice sector in London, exploring the spread of specialist advice needs in the Capital and to see if through aggregating and analysing key open datasets in new ways, social policy issues within specific areas of London can be identified.

We are looking for volunteers to take part who will bring a variety of skillsets to the table. From analysts and data experts, to frontline advice organisations and policy makers – all of you will have the opportunity to learn something new and bring your own expertise to the table.

All you’ll need is an open mind and a laptop - Sign up here to take part!

We’ll be there .....
