Digital standards

We want our users to have the best experience possible.  

Our standards help Medway Council staff and contractors create and run great council websites and online services.

They aim to make it easy to find, read, understand and use our web pages and online forms.  

Our standards ensure that:

  • the experience for users is consistent across our sites and forms
  • we create digital services so good that people prefer to use them.
