Communications Report

To receive the report of the Communications & Community Engagement Officer

Minutes:

The Committee received the report of the Communications & Community Engagement Officer.

 

Members received updates on improvements to the council website, a draft rebranded newsletter, and recent council press coverage activity and discussed how the coverage spreadsheet could be improved.

The Chair expressed his dissatisfaction with other Town and District Councillors in respect of recent negative press coverage in the run up to the recent Remembrance Day. The Chair’s concerns concentrated on how this adverse publicity detracts from the good work of the council’s officers and other individuals working within the community to mark such a poignant event.

 

Members suggested some additional organisations could be included in the “Our Partners” page of the website and were very pleased to see the rebranded newsletter which provided a professional look.

 

 

Resolved:

 

1.            That, the report be noted and,

2.            That,  consideration of adding both the Town Hall Charity and Town Charity to the “Our Partners” website page be given and,

3.            That, the newsletter be published with  the new rebranded template
