Malvern Town Council recognised the need to replace its existing website, with a website that served as a portal and hub of information for councillors, residents and visitors to Malvern.
After a robust tender process, Herefordshire based website design and development company V8 Media (www.v8media.co.uk) were selected to build a new website which reflected the Council’s ever-changing needs and requirements and to serve as a go-to information resource for councillors, residents and visitors to the town. As well as improving the functions already on the Council’s existing website, new features were required, such as the ability to sell tickets, a payment portal, a members’ area and embedded social media feeds.
Malvern Town Council (www.malverntowncouncil.org/home) and V8 Media worked together for five months in order to achieve the optimum solution for their needs. V8 Media’s collaborative approach and responsiveness allowed for a smooth transition to the new website followed up with bespoke in-house training.
V8 Media’s Project Manager and Developer Kyle Jones said: “Working with the Malvern Town Council has been a pleasure and a delight. Together we have been able to create a website that is not only visually appealing but incredibly accessible for the populous of Malvern and modernised so that the councillors have a central hub of which to work from”.
He continued “We look forward to working with Malvern Town Council in the future however they may adapt“.
Since the websites go live at the end of 2018, the Council has seen much improved and up-to-date user experience for councillors, residents and visitors.
