16 Sep 2024

Using a .gov.uk domain for council business demonstrates good practice and professionalism, and ensures your community understands implicitly that any communication from you is legitimate and safe to open. The government’s Parish Council Domains Helper Service has been set up to help aspiring parish councils to move successfully to a .gov.uk domain.

Come along this introductory session to hear more about the Domains Helper Service, the benefits of operating a .gov.uk domain, the costs involved, and how to access funding in this financial year. We’ll also talk about the practical support that is available for all councils making the move - from initial decision making, to choosing the right .gov.uk Approved Registrar to work with, all the way through to setting up your new domain and maintaining good working practices.
