RSS news feeds
Instead of visiting our website to get the latest news, why not get the news sent direct to your desktop or website browser - no having to search for the news you want - just news where and when you want it!
What is an RSS feed?
RSS feeds enable you to keep up-to-date with the latest news headlines. The feed normally consists of text and information relating to the feed including publishing dates and author.
The main benefit of RSS feeds is that you don't have to go looking for the content you want to read, instead content is published automatically when and where you want to read it. You can read the feeds either using software called RSS readers, which tend to be desktop based, or online using web browser readers like iGoogle.
