The Local Government Night-Time Economy Toolkit sets out advice and tools that are available to councils to progress their night-time economy, along a five-stage continuum from ‘Emerging’ to ‘Established’, recognising that every local area is different.
- Part A includes a Maturing and Capacity Framework to identify where each council sits on this continuum.
- 5 Implementation Guides; these provide tailored actions for progressing council’s night-time economy and organisational capacity, depending upon their stage of maturity.
The Toolkit is only the start of the conversation with councils on how we can work with them to build vibrant and safe night-time economies.
In applying this Toolkit, we encourage councils to reach out to the Office of the 24-Hour Economy Commissioner, to walk them through how to map their maturity level and apply the relevant Implementation Guide.
