Client: Crowborough Hortiultural Society

The Society wanted a fresh look for their website to encourage new joiners as well as continuing to provide information to existing members.

The design we selected for the site is simple and clean, with easy to use navigation. On the homepage we’ve displayed full-width images to give it visual impact and focus visitors’ attention on key messages. And, unlike the Society’s old website, their new one adjusts perfectly to varying screen sizes, from desktops to smartphones.

From the colourful home page to the functional ‘contact us’ facility we have been delighted with the upgrade OpenDoor have given to our website. Officers and members were keenly aware that the site needs to reflect the Society’s friendly nature and wide range of activities, and Sam & James have certainly achieved that for us.

Newcomers searching for local garden and allotment information will find everything they need to know, including a list of our monthly talks and even Annual Show schedules and entry forms. Slideshows of previous Show prize-winners set the standard and hopefully encourage hesitant entrants to think “I could do better than that!” which is precisely our intention.

With updates (such as ‘Next Meeting’ information and last-minute changes of speaker) all part of the service the Society could not be happier! We look forward to welcoming the new members the site has the potential to attract.
