Town hub websites
Everything that's on in the town is scattered across Facebook, posters and WhatsApp groups. A town hub puts it in one place: a directory of every shop and trade, one shared calendar, clubs, jobs, a noticeboard and a moving-to-the-area guide. Built around the town, not around any one organisation — and it doubles as the visitor guide.
