We have produced content guidelines to ensure consistency of style across all Renfrewshire Council content.
They have been created for Renfrewshire.gov.uk editors and may also be useful for people who manage or edit:
- other Renfrewshire Council digital channels
- Renfrewshire school digital channels
- HSCP, Renfrewshire Leisure or other local public sector digital channels
- business, community, voluntary or charity digital channels
You can help us improve these guidelines by emailing feedback to web@renfrewshire.gov.uk
