Community websites

From DoWire Wiki

the London borough of Richmond upon Thames

The communities were created in 1997 by local people and they now comprise a family of ten community websites for each of the borough's towns and villages. These websites feature a collection of websites for local organisations, charities, and other community groups, plus our MPs, local, regional and national government, all the search engines, online newspapers, reference resources, etc.

The websites also feature a local news Journal, frequently updated, giving information on matters of local importance, controversial issues, events, etc., important to our communities. The Journal also has the advantage of making access to information easy and enjoyable through the news articles where they link to relevant documentation - consultations, reports, etc. . They feature plenty of photography.

Additionally they "specialise" in their local elections and you will see in the right column of the Journal links to several projects designed to inform voters, introduce and familiarise candidates to their electorate, and increase turnout. This is a lot of hard work. It is all a lot of hard work.
