James is always very quick to respond. I am very grateful to James for setting up the newsletters and consultations for me. It is nice to know that if I have an issue there is someone I can contact, who will resolve the issue for me. Highly recommended.

Absolutely first class service. The website software is generally very easy to use but when I did mess things up, James very very quickly put it right......cannot speak highly enough as I sent the e-mail and a few minutes later it was all okay again.....highly recommended.

I have worked with Parish Council Websites quite a lot. They manage 4 of my Parish Council websites that I am Clerk for.The sites are excellent and easy to use and update. They are very amenable when we need anything modifying and always happy to sort out any problems. I would highly recommend their work.

Earlier this year, the company that created, maintained and hosted my website ceased trading. We were compelled to find an alternative provider for these services and contacted Parish Council Websites. This transpired to be one of the most fortunate and positive things we have done, since the website was created in 2016. Not only did they arrange and facilitate the transfer of our website to their managed services, they were able to update, add our specified changes and reinvigorate this critical business interface. I would thoroughly recommend Parish Council Websites, they were superb, very knowledgeable and can’t do enough to help.
