How do I view the website?
This site is viewable in either Internet explorer or Netscape
navigator. However it uses frames (a way of splitting the
page you see into separate independent sections). Because
of how the browsers work (and the version you are using) you
may get a slightly different view, however the content should
be the same If you encounter any problems then please let
us know via the Feedback Section. Although any popular browser
should be able to view the site, we recommend the latest versions
of either Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape.
How can I find a certain subject?
Nearly all of the information on the site should be 2 clicks
away from the home page. The list of main sections is on the
left hand side Navigation Bar (ie Wrea Green, News & Events,
Churches & Schools ...etc). Upon clicking on a main section,
you will notice that subsection tabs appear at the top of
the web page. Clicking on a subsection tab will take you to
the appropriate information for that subsection.

How do I get a Wrea Green eMail address?
Firstly must already have an existing email account (i.e. with
AOL, BT Internet, Talk21 etc). Then provide us with the information
requested by completing the following form. Your new village
email address will be in the form of ...[your.name]@wreagreen.org.
It's as simple and as user friendly as that. However please
note that we can only allocated one email address per person.
Also we are not able to host your email on the village site
so it is purely as redirection function
How do I set up my real email account to show the my village
name in the 'Sent' field?
Contact your email service provider and they will talk you
through the process. Not all email systems run the same way
and so we can't explain all the options here.

Help is always required particularly as the site grows. Please
see how you can
help and contact the Editor

the site provided it is fair, decent and does not contravene
UK laws.
