Social media communications
Saltford Parish Council’s social media pages are a tool for SPC to share information to residents and visitors to the village. Unlike larger councils, SPC has limited staff resource and is unable monitor social media posts 24/7 or check them daily, which is why commenting is not usually possible.
SPC uses social media as an ‘electronic noticeboard’ to share information with residents. Any posts that SPC is tagged in on external pages will not be responded to (and SPC is not always notified of tags or posts on social media). Members of the public must contact SPC directly using details on this page, or as shared on the ‘Councillors’ page.
SPC is keen to hear views from residents and visitors, however the Council does not take comments made on social media into account as official comments or communications to the Parish Council. This includes comments on planning applications as consulted on by B&NES Council (the Planning Authority).
Further to using the ‘Contact Us’ information on this page, residents are encouraged to explore SPC’s website to find the answers to some frequent questions e.g. ‘Report It‘ (how to report issues to the correct authority), ‘Meetings – Agendas & Minutes‘ etc., or by using the search function on the top right corner of the website.
