AIMS

HISTORY
mill-road.com was originally donated to the Mill Road Winter Fair by i4ce Ltd in 2005 to help publicise events. The basic design and approach were so good that it was felt that it would be good to continue to develop it as a community website. With that development has continued, to publicise local events, provide a directory of all the local services and traders and links to issues of interest to the neighbourhood.

STAFF
At present a team of three people works on the planning of the site with one person doing the uploading of text and images. This work is all provided on a voluntary basis.
