A CHURCH website has won this month's Communigate Pick of the Month competition.

St Paul's Church, in Spennymoor, set up the website with the help of The Northern Echo's Communigate programme.

Communigate websites are free and advice on setting them up is available to any non-profit group or charity.

Included on the St Paul's Church site are photographs of the Reverend Lynda Gough's induction service, the parish newsletter and details of forthcoming baptisms and weddings.

The creators of the website were yesterday presented with their prize - a pair of digital binoculars with a built-in camera so they can take more photos for their site.

The Pick of the Month competition is sponsored by Sales and Marketing Services of Darlington and awards the most innovative and popular websites launched with Communigate's help.
