Web Solutions for the small organisation
Through working with local voluntary groups, particularly in rural areas, PSL has recognised that many organisations have budget restrictions and limited access to technical expertise. This usually means missed chances to exploit the opportunities that being ‘on-line’ can bring to such organisations. For example the simple web site for information dissemination will widen the reach of the organisation and improve its fundraising potential and increase revenues.
More complicated dynamic web sites to enable resources to be managed and used more easily seem to be completely out of reach. Whilst a public spirited local individual will do a lot of good work to help to get an organisation started this seldom carries into a sustainable situation for the long term when the site needs maintaining or upgrading.
Hence PSL has been trailing some new solutions to these barriers including: -
- Support for simple web hosting and domain management
- Password protected areas for easy file sharing across committees or teams
- Resource booking forms (see products) with robust unambiguous and friendly user interfaces
- On line calendars and diaries of events for resource booking
- Spam resistant e-mail contact forms
- Membership registration and management (planned)
- 'Hands free' reservation and payment system (planned)
- Self help wherever possible with tools and training
If you are a small organisation or business such as a village hall management committee, small sports facility, parish or town council, or you run something and want to improve your on-line accessibility then please use the contact form to get in touch. We will be pleased to show you our portfolio and talk to you about your needs.
