Get Involved
Explore Our MK to view ideas and projects submitted by citizens of Milton Keynes. You might have an idea or project yourself – use Our MK to share this with your local community.

Our MK can help make your project a reality. Our MK brings together like-minded citizens of Milton Keynes who want to work together to impact and change their communities.
MK:Smart
Our MK was started as part of the MK:Smart project. MK:Smart was a collaborative initiative to turn Milton Keynes into a "Smart City". This involved using digital technologies and data to better manage the city and improve the quality of life for citizens. Our MK allowed MK:Smart to engage with citizens of the city and find out their suggestions for addressing sustainability issues in their local community.
