What a Parish or Town Council Should Publish on Its Website – May 7th
This informative webinar is designed for parish and town councils seeking guidance on the essential and best practices for publishing content on their websites. From statutory requirements to helpful resources for the community, participants will gain a clear understanding of what needs to be included and what should ideally be published to improve accessibility, transparency, and engagement.
Key Takeaways:
- Legal Requirements: What information is legally required for parish and town council websites (e.g., meeting agendas, minutes, financial and audit information, councillor details).
- Best Practices: Content that fosters transparency, trust, and engagement with the local community.
- Effective Layout and Structure: How to organise your website for ease of use and accessibility.
- Public Access to Key Information: Ensuring that your community can easily find relevant documents and resources and who providers what services.
- Optional but Beneficial Content: Enhancing the website with additional features like event calendars, news updates, and public consultations.
- Security and Privacy: Understanding the importance of protecting sensitive information while maintaining open communication.
This webinar will empower councils to enhance their online presence and improve public service delivery.
