State of the State 2025
The year that defines the future
Bringing together a survey of 5,000 UK citizens alongside interviews with over 80 public sector leaders we create a vision for the next 10 years of government. It provides a view of the UK public sector from the people who rely on it and the people who run it.
The year that defines the future
State of the State 2025 finds the UK public more positive about government and public services than in recent years, but with a shift in their concerns: more are worried about border security and defence, and fewer about climate change or social inequalities.
Leaders across the public sector also report an upturn in optimism as they look ahead to emerging reform plans, but many are concerned whether the investment to deliver them will be available. As government gets set to publish a series of long-term reviews in the first half of the year, the way their findings are processed and implemented will make 2025 the year that defines the future of government.
