I was told about this new website today.

Home - East Lancashire - Feedback Online

Re: New website
 

Is that lottery, ratepayer or taxpayer funded? Does it have a map of Accy town centre?

Re: New website
 

Thanks for the link Gayle

Re: New website
 

It says this on the website

This website has been designed and created by the 5 district authorities in Pennine Lancashire (Burnley BC, Hyndburn BC, Pendle BC, Ribble Valley BC and Rossendale BC) and NHS East Lancashire. Affiliated partners include Lancashire County Council, Lancashire Police and the Fire & Rescue service. It is designed to support the public service partner websites across Pennine Lancashire. At the moment, opportunities for online, interactive communication are limited, and residents have told us that they want to get more involved with, and be more aware of, issues in their area.

Hence the development and creation of the feedbackonline website. Supported by all public service providers in the area, this provides an opportunity for residents to be more engaged in local public service activity in a manner that suits their own individual needs and preferences.
Visitors can register with the site to make greater use of the features and functionality available to them. There is also the potential to automatically tailor your homepage so that you are always shown the information that is of greatest interest to you.

Whether the site is used daily, weekly, monthly or yearly is entirely down to the needs of the individual user. Our objective is simply to provide local information and opportunities that will help to improve quality of life, and develop understanding and awareness of public sector services and activities.

Re: New website

Re: New website
 

It's a few miles south of Accrington, you pass through it on the A56/M66 on the way to Manchester.;)

Re: New website

:D

Re: New website

Re: New website

Re: New website

Re: New website
 

See your mellowing in your old age:rolleyes:

Re: New website
 

Bit late spotting this one, but I have the same question, who is funding it :confused:

Re: New website
 

I have some photos of the hospital-workhouse at


Haslingden Workhouse-Rossendale General Hospital - a set on Flickr

Re: New website
 

I think the answer, like it is to so many similar questions, is 'us'.

Re: New website
 

Having a guess at us.

Re: New website
 

Ah well I know you are correct but I had to ask, where can I opt out of paying :D

Re: New website
 

Just refuse to pay all tax and see what happens.

Re: New website
 

Think your spot on there Neil, its the same with anything really everything comes from taxes, of whichever denomination;)

Re: New website
 

Did that years ago :D:D

Re: New website
 

So you don't buy anything in shops or use fuel or insurance. You just keep your money stuffed under your mattress and spent none of it.

I wish I could manage that.

Re: New website
 

Am just like thousands of others that don't pay taxes, but manage to live :D:D

Re: New website
 

Perhaps this would be an opportune moment to remind folk that accyweb, (unlike other sites), isn't publicly funded and donations to the site help keep it running even for the none taxpayer.
:)

Re: New website
 

I wonder who else will spot the irony in your post :p

Re: New website
 

If you mean the fact that I don't have any donations against my name Neil, I do my penance in the backroom and give my time not money, (we can't all have glamerous jobs such as Moderator some of us work to keep the site going).
;)

Re: New website
 

A great job you do Less

Re: New website
 

You're forced to go to Appleby Horse Fair, every June?

Re: New website
 

Maybe you should point out that you're the chap who is responsible for the chap who actually owns Accyweb and that we all should say thanks for that Less, no Roy no Accyweb:D

Re: New website
 

I would rather just get on with what I do without having to explain it to the Stirring Moderator!

;)

Re: New website
 

I learnt my stirring from reading your posts, they are like a training guide to trouble makers :D

Re: New website
 

Your not nice to Less you:D

Re: New website
 

So long as he keeps giving his time to the site he is allowed.

Can I just add that donations are even better if given on a regular basis rather than just as a one off to get your little badge?
The servers and other sundries have to be paid for every month.
:)

Re: New website
 

Totally agree Less, totally agree, and with the enjoyment I get out of Accy Web its worth every penny

Re: New website
 

Thanks , Wadey .

Other than when I was too tiny to notice , I have never had such good views of rhe Moorlands .

Re: New website
 

That is typical of Hyndburn no input to the site at all, it's all pendle, burnley, ribble valley :eek:

Re: New website
 

We're all supposed to be part of some mythical Pennine Lancashire now.

We've even got our own share of witches.


:D

Re: New website
 

True :D

Re: New website
 

Come on G don't stop there name names:D

Re: New website
 

Well when one of the original Pendle witches was called Old Mother Demdike, and another was called Nutter, quite a few names spring to mind, but I'm much too polite to share my thoughts publicly.

:rolleyes:

Re: New website
 

Surely you can name them yourself?

Or as usual can you only talk Warlocks?
:)

Re: New website
 

Not into sorcery Less

Re: New website
 

Thanks for sharing me this link,I am new here.

Re: New website
 

Is Pennine Lancashire as shown on the map on that site the plan for a merger of the Borough Council's do you think?

Is losing our MP the first stage of the Constituency of Pennine Lancashire with one MP and one Council with Lancashire broken up into regions?
