u3a website makeover & Rebrand

Towcester u3a

A large u3a branch in Northamptonshire.

About The Project

The u3a is a nationwide association for retired and semi-retired people undergoing a re-brand. As part of this initiative, we performed a u3a website makeover for the Towcester branch using the Elementor Pro system. The makeover incorporated the bold colours of yellow and blue, adhering to the new branding guidelines.

Utilising Branding Guidelines

Our u3a website makeover carefully followed the branding guidelines to create a cohesive and visually appealing site. By integrating these bold colours, we ensured the Towcester u3a website makeover aligned with the association’s refreshed image, enhancing its appeal to members and visitors.

Enhanced User Experience

The u3a website makeover not only updated the visual aesthetics but also improved functionality. Using Elementor Pro, we ensured the site was easy to navigate, providing an intuitive and engaging experience for the Towcester u3a members, reflecting the vibrant and active nature of the community.

What you need to know

If you already have the content (words and pictures) to go on your new u3a website, it will take approximately two weeks to build.  We often find that writing the words to go on a u3a website often take longer than expected but we would provide guidance on this.

We can create your logo in accordance with the u3a brand guidelines.

We’ll provide full instructions on how to edit the words and photos on your u3a website as part of the build costs.  For major changes, we can provide a very competitive quote.

With over half of all internet browsing and searches done with a mobile phone or tablet, it is vital your u3a website works on these devices.  A properly designed u3a website should do just that and change its appearance depending on the screen size.  All of our u3a websites work on all devices.

Websites are quoted on a basis of how much work needs doing.  A very basic u3a website would start at £499. We know we are not the cheapest but strongly believe we provide a solid product, backed up by excellent customer service (see our reviews).

As a full service u3a website design company we provide a comprehensive range of hosting solutions for u3a websites.  As well as hosting we can also look after email accounts for your u3a branch.

Photos are key to making your u3a website look good. Visitors are more likely to contact you if you have good quality photos. We find that most u3a branches have someone who is a keen amateur photographer or maybe you already have a photography interest group.

To get found, your u3a website will most likely need to be on the first page of Google or Bing.  This will require your website to have some search engine optimisation carried out on it.  All of our u3a websites have the on-page SEO done while being built.  You will find that your u3a website will easily achieve page one of Google for searches in your location.

Website features

Everything your branch needs

Every u3a branch is different, so the website can be structured around the information your members actually use rather than forcing everything into a fixed template.

Hosting & support

We can look after the technical side

Your branch can concentrate on keeping groups, events and member information up to date while we take care of the technical side of the website. We offer managed WordPress hosting with SSL security, regular backups, software updates and ongoing monitoring.

If something needs attention, you also have someone to ask rather than trying to solve technical problems yourself. We can provide general website support, maintenance and help when changes are needed behind the scenes.

This is particularly useful when committee roles or webmasters change, helping ensure the website continues to run smoothly without relying on one person having specialist technical knowledge.

Your members deserve better than clunky menus and mystery pages

A cleaner u3a website makes groups, events and information easier to find — without making updates harder behind the scenes.
