Local is a Drupal CMS site template for organisations that help people find the services and information they need β€” local councils, community support services and community participation organisations.

Standing on the shoulders of giants, this site template for Drupal CMS and Canvas is inspired by the research and development of the UK and Ireland local government communities working with Drupal and follows guidance from the gov.uk design system, drawing on Annertech's extensive experience in the sector.

Every component β€” from the hero banner and top task links to the service cards and section layouts β€” are purpose-designed by Annertech's team to integrate with Drupal CMS and Canvas, ensuring that the editorial experience in Canvas and the rendered output are coherent from the ground up.

Features include:

  • Classic blue and white theme complete with Canvas ready components that follow proven, accessible patterns.
  • Canvas landing pages β€” home, about, and what's on, built with Canvas components
  • Service landing page content type β€” top-level section page with configurable top task links
  • Service page content type β€” individual service with title, description, and rich body content
  • A vibrant 'Bright' theme variant in pink and amber with rounded components and offset styling.
  • ECA automation β€” section pages stay in sync when service pages are published or updated
  • Pathauto β€” clean hierarchical URLs generated automatically
  • Demo content β€” five demonstration service sections, with service page examples.
  • Content moderation β€” draft and published workflow for all service content
  • Drupal CMS foundation β€” including media, search, SEO, cookie consent, authentication recipes
