I can see this as being a very useful (and overdue) facility for the various organisations in Whimple, particularly the ability for various people to update the content quickly and easily. I think it would be a good idea to consolidate the existing Whimple websites (www.whimple.net, www.whimple.org, http://www.whimplechurch.org/ ) with this one, and provide links to those which need to reside separately (e.g. www.whimple-primary.devon.sch.uk). Maybe even Whimple News could be published online (for the benefit of the environment). We have a great community here in Whimple, but sometimes it seems a little fragmented with different organisations doing the same thing, but independently.

This would enable us to have a single calendar of events for the whole village, and give us a single starting point for all things Whimple.

Any hosting costs could be shared between the various organisations, and maintenance could easily be carried out by each separate organisation. This would also allow the smaller organisations and clubs to have their own presence on the web.

I would be interested in other people's views on this, particularly those who currently have their own Whimple websites.
