Build
New website
A new website for a registered charity that supports young people.
The situation
Hitchin Youth Trust's website ran on software several versions out of date, which the Trust's IT provider had flagged as a security risk. The contact form had stopped working and could not be repaired, and at times the application forms could not be downloaded.
What we did
We built a new site in October 2026, using the content from the old site and the figures from the Trust's annual report notes. The Trust's manager and trustees reviewed it and their changes went in within days: clearer pages for the Youth Rooms and the Youth Charity Hub, links to the charities based in the hub, and a plain explanation that grant forms are printed and completed by hand.
We took new photographs and video of the rooms on site, replaced the privacy notice with the current version, and worked with the Trust's IT provider to point the Trust's address at the new site.
The outcome
The new site went live at the end of October 2026, under four weeks after the first draft.
