The Council website package has been designed with an extensive list of features to meet the specific needs of Town Councils and Parish Councils.
The list of features have been developed over many years of experience working with Town and Parish Councils.
It may be there is a new feature that we have not yet been asked to develop. If this is the case you will find we are a extremely responsive to customer feedback and welcome all suggestions. If your Council has a need for a certain feature it is likely it will also be of benefit to another Council and developed in a new release.
