Who?

Coalfields Regeneration Trust is the UK's leading charity focusing on former coal mining communities across England, Scotland and Wales. Their purpose is to help regenerate and breathe life into these communities.

Requirement

They approached us in 2023 requiring a new website that is robust, fast and can handle all the functionality they need to make the support they offer more accessible. They had programmes, hubs, jobs, blog articles and more that needed to be organised and easy to navigate.

Challenges

Getting all of their content populated and styled in a way that makes it easy to access and digest was challenging. On top of this, we had to create bespoke functionality so that their teams could easily update the content without compromising the overall aesthetic.

Reflection

This build ended up being one of the most significant projects we tackled as a team, not just in terms of the number of pages created, but also in the functionality behind the website and the relationships between its sections.

The project presented new challenges at every stage, which brought out some of our best collaborative work. You can explore the finished website to see how everything came together.
