We recreated the old website in a modern version of Joomla, rebuilding and adding new functionality when appropriate. We added direct debit subscriptions and one off payments for memberships, a fun and interactive members map, and brought across a plethora of members information from the old system. We enhanced the events functionality, added custom forms migrated the site on to a new server, moving membership management away from an ageing Access database system.

Annual membership renewal and new joiners are now walked through a fully automated process, calculating membership fees in realtime and processing payments online, hugely reducing the amount of administration required. The new design is fresh, welcoming and interesting, and has had overwhelmingly positive feedback from members. The functionality is up to date and uses modern responsive techniques, making it easy for members to keep up to date on the go.
