Case Study: South Somerset District Council achieves 500+ youth sign‑ups and increased engagement with Textlocal's bulk SMS

South Somerset District Council - Customer Case Study

South Somerset District Council needed a reliable way to reach young people across different communities to promote and manage sign-ups for its Street Soccer events. To solve this communication challenge the council used Textlocal’s bulk SMS software and short code service to drive registrations and engagement.

Textlocal implemented a short code sign-up campaign that made the programme easily accessible, captured contact data for future outreach, and streamlined event communication. The initiative led to over 500 young people taking part, with texting to the short code generating the majority of sign-ups, demonstrating measurable increases in awareness and efficiency thanks to Textlocal.
