New Transition Nottingham website
This is where we’ll be posting more information about the latest Transition Nottingham news, updates from local neighbourhood groups, ressources and forthcoming events.
You can post events at http://www.transitionnottingham.org.uk/events/submit-an-event/
There’s also space to submit interesting articles, and a members’ area where you’ll find information about the organisation of Transition Nottingham, minutes of meetings etc.
Why a new website?
In order for Transition nottingham to communicate more effectively we thought a snazy, sparkling briliant new website would be just the ticket. Nichola Musgrove the diamond of web design said “effective communication is essential for everyone to work together for Transition, and the internet is just one (but very quick and effective) way of enabling that”.
So there you have it
-enjoy (and get involved it’s YOUR website)
What’s on the website
Well, not a lot at the moment, and here’s where you come in, we need content. Any news or interesting articles, events you maybe running, comments and projects.

Articles and news
Users can submit any relevant news or articles for inclusion on the site. Let people know what’s going on in your Transition group or your views on Transition issues.
Projects
There is a project section where each Transition or related project (it doesn’t have to be Transition). Each project included will have it’s own page with a desciption of the project and contact detaills.
Local groups
All of the local groups have their own page which users can post information and can act as a message board for that group for people to get in touch. Don’t forget the good old phone is still a good method of communication.
Resources
Coming soon…but will have links to other sites, documents, video and photos.

Once you register on the website and become a member you have accesss to more content on the website. This will build up over time to give access to more downloads and content especially for TN members.

How you can help
We need help with the new website to make it vibrant and information rich, with debate and comment. Can you help with:
- Reviewing news and articles. Ideally the articles should be written by local people.
- Search for relevant local news and articles.
- Write articles, blog, post etc.
- input events on to the website and search for relevant local events.
and anything else which you feel would be good to see on the website.
