I have been a member for 50 years and belonged to 5 different branches. Many branches open their meetings by singing a hymn before their MU service. As this singing is mostly unacompanied, it is not very inspiring, especially if the group is small and elderly. I would like to see MU Enterprise selling CDs of appropriate hymns for use at meetings throughout the churches year. The charity PARCHE produces sets at £12.00 including postage and I have in the past purchased Christmas Carols on CDs from Kevin Mayhew through SPCK shops. I’m sure that the MU branches would not be the only ones to purchase these as there are many churches without organists, and where small congregations struggle to sing hymns. Some churches use CDs produced by cathedral choirs, but it is not the same when the singing is dominated by well trained voices.
I also think that a simple wall thermometer would be useful to indicate when the temperature of a room is correct for elderly people. There was a very simple cardboard one produced by Age UK, and if MU produced one in similar style, it would not only help people in the winter months, but would also act as an advertisement for MU where it would be seen by all visitors.
I hope you will find these suggestions useful.

The external links above are just examples of what others have built using the system we’re offering here. A couple of example MU sites are below. We’ve received your website request and it should be up and running by next week. (I’ve fixed the Nokia link too)

Many thanks

I went to the suggested websites..one was forbidden! Are these OK for the MU they seem very American for such anEnglish organisation! Will there be any influence from the host site?

We have run a website on Micrsoft small businesses for free. Now we are told there is to be a charge…as we want our funds to go to MU projects we cannot afford to pay. The website we have need rejigging so that it can be used better.

I am extremely interested in this new service about to be offered by the Mothers’ Union.
I am the Branch Leader at Weobley in Herefordshire. I have been trying to set-up a Web Site
for my Branch over the past 12 months, without any success! I look forward to receiving your
e-mail, hopefully telling me that it’s all systems go.
Kind regards,
Patricia Brenner – Branch Leader – Weobley.

The hosting package is still officially being tested. I’m hoping to offer the service diocese-wide within the next few weeks. We are able to transfer any content you already have into a new install. If you’d like to have a site created please fill out the form at the top of the page and I’ll make sure you’re up and running as soon as the service goes live.

Many thanks

Corbin

It would have been really useful to know that this service was available. How were you publicising this to MU dioceses? We’ve been trying to get a site up and running for a year now, and had I known this was about to happen, I may have been able to save a certain amount of hassle! The first I heard of it was from my counterpart on the Isle of Man last week! We have a partly-built site using “moonfruit” – how easy would it be to copy this over?
Thanks,
