East Grinstead Community Web Site - EGNet
Description
About this Site
The East Grinstead Website was established in June 1996 as a privately-funded experimental attempt to "put the town on the map", attract visitors, promote local shopping and tourism and promote local businesses on the Internet.
From modest beginnings of perhaps 20 pages it has grown to over 550, covering all aspects of community life, discussion, what's on, entertainment and sports. It has been visited not only by locals and Brits in general but by hundreds of people from overseas, and a steady stream of e-mails come in from people asking about all sorts of things from their ancestry and requests for historical information, to the best place to stay when visiting, etc.
The Site has been approved as a partner in the D.T.I. "IT for All" initiative, is a member of the Sussex Community Internet Project, and has forged strong links with the local Council, Arts and Tourism bodies.
