The Children's Centre's is enjoying not only a new website but the fact that its staff have full control of the site, thanks to a new, easy-to-use content management system from PDMS Digital Design.
"The Children's Centre was planning a major website upgrade, but at the same time the charity wanted a site that staff members could update themselves without needing a lot a of IT knowledge and skills," said Jim Rawson, Senior Designer for PDMS's Digital Design services.
"Our solution is built with a user friendly content management system which allows people to quickly and easily publish content to the web using modern standards and technology."
An independent Manx charity, The Children’s Centre develops, manages, and pioneers a variety of community initiatives and services aimed at enabling children, young people and families to realise their full potential.
Rebecca McCauley, Development Manager for the charity, said, "Things here change quickly, and paying a specialist web designer for almost-daily website updates just doesn't make sense for a charitable organisation like ours.
"That's why the PDMS approach worked best for us."
Thanks to the web content management system, the new Children's Centre website boasts a wide range of features and functions that make the site a useful resource.
"Digital design is much more than just getting a website set up.
"To create an effective web presence, it takes a deep understanding of what makes the web work for organisations and individuals alike," continued Jim.
"But with a content management system, once the design and build stage is complete, we can hand over many web management aspects to our clients, saving them time and money."
The new Children’s Centre website is one of many content management projects undertaken by PDMS for a diverse range of clients.
