BetterGov was founded in February 2016 in response to the challenges local government faced in implementing critical social care case management systems. It was clear that councils needed specialist business and technology support, and that poorly implemented systems had a direct and lasting impact on vulnerable citizens. Driven by this understanding, BetterGov was established to deliver a better approach, combining deep domain knowledge with high‑quality delivery and a focus on measurable outcomes. This swiftly led to BetterGov becoming a trusted strategic delivery partner for social care IT programmes. By 2020, following the successful delivery of more than a dozen social care IT projects, BetterGov implemented the UK’s first single shared case management and finance system across three councils.

Organic Growth

An expansion of services into implementing other complex systems such as Health, Education, Housing and Finance was natural for the team, and resulted in BetterGov working with its first NHS client in 2020. By now the BetterGov consultants were recognised for not only focusing our involvement on delivering outcomes, but also empowering teams by transferring knowledge and upskilling internal staff. With growth in the both the leadership and operational team, our capabilities further developed, and early in 2020 BetterGov successfully made its first footprint in the Central Government market, delivering a large-scale cloud migration project. Since then, BetterGov have created and improved digital products and services for central government clients, following Government Digital Service (GDS) standards and Technology Code of Practice.

Continuing to Make it Better

Through our Digital Transformation services, BetterGov continue to exclusively support government organisations to provide better services to citizens and users through the discovery and delivery of key projects across digital, data, people, and technology. BetterGov is not just a service provider; we are strategic partners dedicated to the transformation and success of the UK Public Sector.

Corporate Social Responsibility

The BetterGov team are privileged to be providing mentoring support to two organisations who focus on the development, social improvement and professional success of young people, both locally and across the UK.

The Social Mobility Foundation (SMF) is a charity which aims to make a practical improvement in social mobility for young people through providing opportunities, and networks of support for 16-17 year olds who are unable to get them from their schools or families.

​The Kent Foundation is an essential part of the business community, supporting innovative young people to grow new enterprises, create employment opportunities, and contribute to the economic well-being of the County.

Alzheimer’s Research UK

This year BetterGov will be fundraising for Alzheimer’s Research UK, the UK’s leading dementia research charity. 

If nothing changes, one in two of us will be directly affected by dementia – either by developing the condition ourselves, caring for someone with it, or both. Currently, there are no treatments available on the NHS to slow, stop or prevent the diseases that cause it. But Alzheimer’s Research UK’s cutting-edge work is accelerating progress towards a cure. 

Throughout 2026 the BetterGov team will focus our fundraising efforts on supporting this life-changing research, with the hope that one day the heartbreak of dementia will become a thing of the past.
