Consider running a brand development workshop to consider the future of your brand, delivering both visuals and words that begin to shape how your firm is perceived.

Porlock Parish Council have a legal obligation to provide access to the documents underpinning the operations of the council. Every meeting has an agenda, minutes and supporting documents. Many policies and other documents need to be made public. We took over an existing site which contained nearly 400 documents dating back a few years. All the documents were organised with metadata, and loaded into a back-end database ready for publication. Using parameterised UI components the documents are published into the relevant pages of the site. By using a back-end database, there is no need to touch the web pages themselves when new documents are added. The Clerk of the council can add documents in an almost non-technical way without needing us to intervene. We are also working on a parallel home page which is designed entirely with accessibility in mind, for people using screen readers.
