Dorchester Parish Website Meeting

Wednesday 6th July 2005 at 8:15p.m. at The Wessex Royale Hotel

Minutes

Present: Rev Richard Betts (RB), Richard Budd (RBu), Richard Cox (RC) & Trisha Bowen (TB)
Apologies: Mike Morgan (MM)

1. Confirmation of the name of the Parish website - It was unanimously agreed that since no further feedback was received, the name of the Parish website would remain for the time being as “The Dorchester Parish Website”. The committee agreed to revue this, should West Stafford and Monkton wish to publish their homepages on this site.
 

2. Follow-up to Open evening - The website open evening was deemed to be a success with more than 30 members of the parish present. The team have received numerous items of feedback, most of which, where practical, were implemented on the site. The website build will continue to be a work in progress, with new ideas and feedback being incorporated as and when available.
 

3. Pages for John White celebrations and other suggested additions – As MM was not at the meeting it was agreed that a follow up email should be sent to him, asking for any additional news items surrounding the John White celebrations that need to be included in the St Peters section of the site be included.
 

4. Any other business – As St Georges Church tower has recently been augmented to 8 bells, RC agreed to follow up and include any new information, pictures etc that would compliment the section. RB made the comment that news items on the site need to be date specific and all ‘old’ news items need to be deleted, when no longer applicable. RC stated that this also needs to apply to current information that needs to be updated on a regular basis. Pews News is now published regularly (with many thanks to the Parish Office) on a Friday night and due to feedback received from the open evening, now includes 3 weeks on a rolling basis. RC mentioned that the Parish Magazine Taster page needs to be updated on a regular basis – RC will speak to MM to chase.

The meeting closed at 9:00pm
- End of Meeting.
