About this event

This short online session will support trustees and volunteers to understand what is involved in setting up a website for their village hall or community building, or in improving one that has been left out of date.

Delivered by Hugo from HugoFox, a UK platform built specifically for community organisations, the session will cover what to think about before you start, how to decide what content your website needs, and the practical dos, don’ts and common pitfalls to look out for. Most of this guidance is universal and applies whichever route you choose to take.

There will be a presentation and demonstration, plus the opportunity to ask questions.
