Zoocha has successfully partnered with Newport City Council (NCC) to redesign and develop a new LocalGov Drupal (LGD) platform tailored to meet the needs of one of Wales' largest local authorities. The project focused on enhancing user experience, ensuring accessibility, and providing seamless bilingual functionality. 

By leveraging the LocalGov Drupal distribution, NCC achieved faster delivery while maintaining high standards of usability and accessibility. The development process adhered to GOV.UK Design Standards, with a staggered release approach, allows the old and new platforms to coexist during the transition. This collaboration underscores the efficiency of open-source solutions in government digital publishing.
