Free Community Group Pages on the Marple Website
The Marple Website has been representing the local community on-line since 1998 and offers free web pages to local non-profit making organisations such as the Macnair Trust, Friends of Oldknow's Lime Kilns and Marple Christian Care to name just a few.

These pages are produced in support of local clubs, non-profit making organisations and charities that wish to become part of the Marple Website Community. This is particularly aimed at local organisations who do not have the means, or knowledge to create their own web pages, or would benefit from being part of a wider community. If you are a member of such group and would like to feature your activities on The Marple Website, then just get in touch. This is a free service with no charges and is open to local clubs, non-profit making organisations and charities only. If you are a group that does have your own web site you will still benefit from joining this community, as it will help you to reach a wider audience and boost your search engine rankings.
The site also provides a wealth of local information and history articles, a forum and notice board for local events and discussions and “The Virtual History Tour of Marple and District” - an ever expanding collection of photographs and postcards that is maintained and updated in collaboration with Marple Local History Society and is now being migrated to a new 3rd Generation of the Virtual Tour.
The main objective of Marple Website's Design and Hosting work is to fund the annual running costs of The Marple Website and the “Virtual Tour” so that they can continue to expand and grow. It also allows me to support a number of local community groups.
