The digital home for every UK community council.
One secure platform where any parish, town or community council can launch its own resident-verified space, for news, issues, consultations, polls, meetings and alerts.
Welcome to Cosheston
Your community, online. Stay informed and have your say.
3 open consultationsNot a website. A platform every community calls home.
MyCommunity runs one secure, multi-tenant platform. Each activated community gets its own space and its own web address, while you manage everything centrally.
Engagement isn't broken because people don't care.
Work, family and caring responsibilities leave little room for evening meetings. So the same few voices decide, and most residents go unheard. MyCommunity moves participation to where people already are: their phone.
A complete toolkit for modern community life.
Resident-facing tools that make taking part effortless, and back-office tools that make running a council simpler.
Verified residents
Confirm every member lives locally, by posted card or proof of address.
Issue map
Report potholes and hazards on a map; councils track each one to resolution.
Anonymous polls
Verified-but-anonymous voting for honest feedback councils can stand behind.
Meetings & minutes
Schedule meetings, publish minutes, and track every action to closure.
Consultations
Run structured consultations on local plans, county and government topics.
Ideas & projects
Residents suggest and back ideas; councils run projects transparently.
News & alerts
One trusted hub for updates, events and emergency notifications.
Complaints & casework
Log formal complaints with a full audit trail so nothing slips through.
From dormant record to living community.
Every UK community already exists in MyCommunity as a record. Here's how one becomes a fully activated, resident-verified community.
See it in detailEvery community is in the registry
Using OS boundary and UK property data, each parish, town and community exists as a dormant record, ready, but not yet live.
A clerk or leader requests a demo
Someone authorised to represent the community gets in touch and sees exactly how it would work for them.
We review and approve
We confirm the request is genuine and the right people are involved, then approve the community for activation.
The community is provisioned
It becomes a live tenant with its own secure space at yourcommunity.mycommunity.com and its own admin tools.
Residents join & verify
Residents confirm they live locally, then start reading minutes, reporting issues, voting and taking part.
Built for the people running communities, and living in them.
For councils & leaders
Reach the residents who never make the meeting, and run everything from one place.
- Higher, broader, more representative engagement
- Meetings, minutes, issues & complaints in one system
- Verified results you can defend

For residents
Your whole community in your pocket, in minutes, whenever it suits you.
- Take part anytime, from any phone
- Report local issues on a map
- Vote and give feedback anonymously
- One trusted place for local news & alerts
Credible enough for councils. Safe enough for residents.
Verification and anonymity aren't a feature bolt-on, they're the foundation everything else is built on.
Real residents only
Posted card or proof of address, so participation is genuinely local.
Anonymous votes
Individual votes and feedback stay private, even when verified.
Role-based access
Clerks, councillors and residents each see exactly what they should.
UK data & GDPR
Built around UK data handling, with moderation and a clear privacy policy.
See a real community, built on MyCommunity.
Cosheston is a live demo community that shows what yours could look like. It's one of many, every activated community gets its own space and web address.

Should the village hall car park be resurfaced this year?
128 verified residentsMore voices heard. Stronger decisions.
For the first time we're hearing from residents who have never set foot in a meeting. Turnout on our consultations has more than tripled.
The verification gives us real confidence in the results. When we take a decision now, we can show it genuinely reflects the community.
I work shifts and could never make the meetings. Now I read the minutes and have my say on my phone in five minutes. It feels like my village again.
