IMPORTANT CHANGES UNDERWAY TO THIS VILLAGE WEBSITE
The website is funded by Fovant Parish Council, however we are now being required change to a more secure domain server. This will ensure, that anyone visiting our website or receiving emails from us will know that the communication is safe, legitimate and can be trusted. This is increasingly important as cyber scams are on the rise. Using a .gov.uk domain and email also supports data protection compliance and ensures as a Parish Council we can readily respond to information requests.
Moving forward, this, the current website, will be migrated to the new site in late November, the overall look of the site will not change however there will be the facility to sign up and receive emails of new and upcoming events, we also expect to produce a monthly Parish magazine called the Fovant Diary which will be available on the new website, plus as a push mail, with hard paper copies being available at locations in the village.

NEW SCAM DETECTION TOOL
Get Safe Online has launched a new scam detection tool on their website.
If you are suspicious of a text, email or message and you want to check if it is legit or not before responding, you can upload it to Ask Silver on the Get Safe Online website and whereupon it will return an indication of whether the communication is safe or a ‘red flag’ for fraud.
