Re: Clubs and societies
"More worryingly, my Parish Council have decided to set up a Facebook page. They've given assurances that important stuff will be posted on their own web site as well, but it doesn't feel like a good day for local democracy :-("
My city was neglecting their web site and only updating their FB site for a while until they got sued. As FB is considered a subscription service, government agencies can't use it as a sole source for publishing public notices and documents. It's not a big city. They could hire a kid from the local high school to come in a couple of days a week and maintain the city web site. The more difficult bits such as payment portals could be maintained by a professional company since that sort of thing doesn't change very often.
