Parish Councils

As the expectations of our communities are changing, it can be a challenge to connect your services with residents' busy lives, especially given your small team.

The right IT will create smoother processes, to more easily and more effectively provide those essential council services.

Do more with what you have

The strong personal and local connection between a Parish Council and the community it serves is important. Reliable, clever IT will help you serve better, with the people and purpose you already have and without breaking the budget.

Make scheduling, sharing and following-up Parish Council meetings easier and less time-consuming.

Streamline how you track and manage information access requests, to ensure full compliance.

Robust data security for your documents and internal communications, including data recovery if anything should go wrong.

Lean on our expertise in systems like Microsoft 365 to find cost-effective licensing options for flexible, part-time staff and smaller numbers of councillors.

BE MORE EFFICIENT, SECURE AND INNOVATIVE

Discover how joined-up can make for your Parish Council

Reliability

When you have a small team, you can’t afford IT downtime. We only deliver robust systems and can customise them to be easy to access, while still secure.

Strategic thinking

Understanding the digital trend and planning ahead will give you a longer-lasting IT solution, so you will get more from it over time.

Productivity

Save time, serve your communities better and free up councillor and staff time by unlocking useful hidden features from everyday software like Microsoft or Google.

Collaboration

Whether you meet regularly in person, or need to work remotely, the right email, video conferencing and file-sharing systems will allow everyone to work together easily and effectively.

Costs controlled

We appreciate that budgets may be limited for local councils, and we offer Pay As You Go services so you only pay for us when you need us.

Robust security

Remove the worry of files being accessed by unauthorised people: we can implement systems and awareness training to protect your files, emails and other data.

Your questions answered

We know that the needs of a small Parish Council, who will have smaller numbers of councillors and may have a few or even part-time staff, could be different to the requirements of a bigger Town or District Council. Part of what sets us apart, as IT providers, is our focus on flexibility. This means finding the systems that are a best fit for our clients, instead of forcing them into a one-size-fits-all solution.

We support clients with a range of IT requirements including cyber security, operating software (like Microsoft or Google), secure file sharing, seamless remote working, preparation and compliance for audits and more.

We also offer our services on a Pay as You Go or Managed IT basis, so you can choose the level of support that makes sense for your needs and your budget.

Yes we can. We can support most legacy IT systems and we customise our approach based on your needs.

Yes we can, we know that ensuring your councillors and staff are confident using their IT is an important part of efficient, productive systems.

We offer a Pay As You Go service, giving you IT support when you need it without having to pay for ongoing support from us.
