There is a Whatsapp group for the Parish - the purpose of the group is to allow people to share anything about life in the Parish they think others will be interested in.
Please email ettonpc@outlook.gov.uk for a link to join the group. We don't post the link here as we've had problem with spamming in the past!
There are just a few rules:
-
Always keep in mind that a WhatsApp message will land into more than 100 people’s mobile phones, usually with a “ping”. Please be selective about the messages you send and the time you send them.
-
If you need any kind of help or support please don’t think twice about using.
-
This is not a “rant and moan” channel – the notifications are too intrusive for that on Whatsapp, and there are sites like Facebook that are better designed for it.
-
Be kind and courteous. Treat everyone with respect.
-
Swearing is not allowed.
-
Please use "Private Messages" rather than one-on-one conversations in the group. Select the message, click more and then reply privately. For example - if you're arranging to sell something, once initial contact has been made please sort the details out in a private chat. Again - its the notifications going to lots of people!
And a few helpful tips:
- Use the mute button if there’s a conversation you’re not interested in. You can mute your group notifications for a few hours.
- Remember not everyone can see your name or know who you are unless you have set it up on your profile / privacy settings (cog in the bottom right hand corner)
