Writing Style

The Christ Church Chislehurst website writing style should communicate a welcoming and friendly attitude whilst ensuring our message is communicated to a variety of backgrounds, cultures and age groups.  The style should be formal, professional English, avoiding the use of acronyms and slang which may not be understood by users new to the church or to the area.  If the use of acronyms or slang is appropriate then the full meaning should be visible within close proximity.  

Ideally, sentence structure should be concise; communicating one idea at a time so the meaning is easy to follow onscreen or on a portable device. Where possible, include links within the body of the message to related information or definitions to help the user more easily navigate the site.
