Social Media Policy

1. Monitoring and Moderation

  • All comments on social media posts will be actively monitored throughout working hours by a member of my team.

2. Protecting Respectful Dialogue and Access to Direct Communication

  • Dialogue will be encouraged in a manner that promotes respect, inclusivity, and factual accuracy to maintain a space where everyone feels welcome to engage without fear of abuse or harassment.
  • Genuine concerns, disagreements, and feedback will remain welcome and unaffected.
  • Constituents seeking dialogue or assistance from myself will be encouraged to contact via email or phone, with contact details provided in a response.
  • Some constituents may be responded to via comment, for the sake of community clarity on a particular issue.

3. Handling Harmful, Abusive, or Threatening Content

  • Comments will be removed by an admin if they;
    • Harass,
    • Use foul language,
    • Name call,
    • Spread misinformation,
    • Use falsified imagery, such as AI generated images,
    • Advertise,
    • Have unacceptable and persistent levels of contact ( trolling/spam ).
  • Persistent offenders may be blocked and/or reported to the Police where necessary, to prevent further harm or disruption.
  • Said offenders may also be prevented from engaging in private communication with myself, in accordance to my acceptable behaviour policy.

4. Ongoing Review of Policy Effectiveness

  • This policy will be reviewed regularly to ensure it continues to protect the safety of users.
