At the Annual Parish meeting on Saturday we gave a brief summary of how our Village website Tarvinonline.org has grown since its launch on June 23rd 2013.
We were fortunate in securing a £2000 Grant early in 2013 from the Big Lottery Fund to create, launch and establish the website.
The key to our success has been the thousands of volunteer hours that went initially into the data collection and since then into maintaining our target of 2 articles/day to keep the website fresh. A 7 day per week challenge for the editorial team so contributions from our readers , however small are always welcomed.
The website provides links to many local and national websites giving easy access to a host of other information. Further linking arrangements are under investigation to extend this approach, providing a home for other local websites hence encouraging a "one stop shop" for Tarvin parish residents. Tarvinonline's success encouraged Tarvin Parish Council to migrate Parish Council business to a linked but independent website on the same platform.
Have we been successful?-
We think so and the team is justifiably proud of the progress we have made in the last 12 months. A few statistics follow which encourage us that we are on the right lines
Since startup :-
We always welcome ideas , sent to editor@tarvinonline.org on how you see your website developing to provide you with interesting stories, helpful information and a guide to what's on in our Community.
