Welcome to the world of Hello Lamp Post

We are the first organisation to build a uniquely-engaging communication channel for any public space. Our digital platform makes engagement easier, quicker and more cost-efficient.

What’s the problem?

Today, people expect responsive, user led services, but engagement can be costly and time consuming. Organisations are struggling to share information about their local area and services, whilst gathering real-time feedback from their wide-spread communities – often relying on expensive research projects, town hall meetings, marketing campaigns and awareness events.

To make visiting the RUH or having a stay in hospital the best possible experience, it’s essential to find out from our patients what we’re doing well and where improvements could be made. We’re hopeful that this project will give patients and visitors a quick and convenient way to share feedback with us while they wait for their appointment.

Bringing Hello Lamp Post to downtown Iowa City opens up additional ways for anyone visiting the area to interact with the district. It’s a fun way to engage with public spaces, which is also more accessible and easier to use.

New technologies have transformed how visitors can engage with a destination, and enable the tourism industry to look at creative and innovative ways to deliver experiences for our visitors which are authentic, compelling and memorable.

People’s answers are recorded and then passed on to future users, thereby creating a dialogue between inhabitants and their city. All this was to help people reconnect with their surroundings and challenge them to think differently about the objects they pass everyday.

Hello Lamp Post has modernised and scaled our ability to engage a wider community more often. We plan on further deploying Hello Lamp Post on many other consultations and engagement projects, including the next phase of our liveable neighbourhoods work.
