We have been actively involved in Local Government Administration for over 25 years so we understand all aspects of the business and legislation covering town and parish councils.

We have been providing a fully managed website service to parish and town councils since 2005; a service that offers full continuity, less burden on the clerk and at a cost that is often less than you might expect.

Our website service means that your clerk simply sends information and documents to us and we manage everything on the website in a timely manner.
 
Our Parish Package provides all the facilities and services required by current legislation but if you want to provide a better service to your town or parish you may upgrade to a higher package or add optional extras to your chosen package.

We fully support Social Media, Fix-My-Street and RSS Feeds and integrate these into your website.
