The Notice Board is a useful feature for all logged in users. It's an easy to use feature, not as fully featured as a typical website forum. Use it for...

  • Policy statements
  • Staff announcements
  • Social communication between staff. Help staff to get to know each other, particularly those in other branches of your organisation.
