I provided consultancy to help them decide on the best solution for their multiple needs and then implemented (with the ability to integrate into their CRM, website and analytics package), and supported, the chosen solution.

CTH: Take the challenge, Pass it on

Client: Chestnut Tree House for Designation (2009)

Details: This is a campaign microsite to support the Chestnut’s Challenge (www.chestnutschallenge.org.uk) which aims to raise awareness and support for the Chestnut Tree House children’s hospice in Sussex, led by some great kids within or connected to the hospice itself.  The Take the challenge, Pass it on microsite is part of a YouTube video viral campaign put together by the hospice and it’s team (see campaign credits) to be the hub for sharing the content. I designed and developed the site and helped make sure it was live for the big launch event in December ’09.

I hope the campaign will be a success for all involved, especially the children, and indeed why not get involved yourself by either donating to the hospice or by passing on the link to your friends so that they can get to meet the wonderful kids involved. Please visit www.challengesussex.org.uk

Client: Nationwide People for Designation (1998-2009)

Details: I’ve worked with the team at Nationwide People for over 10 years producing and supporting their public website and private intranet applications for their recruitment services. The public site is on its 3rd evolution, and the ASP and SQL Server based intranet is still going strong and meeting their bespoke needs.

“I have known John for many years and highly value his judgement when considering branding, design and web development issues. He is very conscientious and responds to requests for help in a timely manner. The quality of his work is high and he takes great pride in providing a professional service. I particularly like the way John will give an honest opinion – unlike others, who may simply agree to anything a client says. I prefer this honest approach, and would recommend John to anyone requiring similar services.”

He has created 2 themes for websites we have run on Drupal, he managed the project from beginning to end within budget and has been on hand for any queries, questions etc afterwards. All round excellent work and service.”
