LocalGov Drupal Camp 2025 was held in The Abbey Community Centre (near Westminster Abbey in London) on July 3rd 2025. I travelled down (despite the English rail network's attempts to the contrary) for the day as an attendee.
It was a hot day in London on the 3rd July, and thankfully the Abbey Community Centre had lots of doors and windows that we could open to let some air through. Including a few fans dotted around to try and keep the rooms cool.
After a small icebreaker, where people stood up if this was their first LocalGov Camp or what sort of role they have, we started the camp with an introductory session.
LocalGov Drupal is currently being used by 57 councils currently and has around 59 council websites (including a bunch of smaller council websites) being powered by the system. It's good to see the year on year increase in coverage of this project, which has reached a decent critical mass of interest and funding.
Lots of things have happened in the year since LocalGov Drupal Camp 2024 in Birmingham.
The Drupal 11 upgrade is nearly ready and lots of effort has been done on this recently. Technically, Drupal 10 is still supported until December 2026, when Drupal 12 is released, but we still want to keep things up to date as much as possible.
