Community First Web

Community First Web

I help community groups get a simple website without a big upfront cost.

The aim is to give your group somewhere people can find out what you do, when you meet and how to get involved.

Places are limited. I review applications, so applying doesn't guarantee a place.

What's included

  • £10 one-off website setup.
  • A domain included if your group needs one.
  • Free hosting and one email account for three months.
  • Optional hosting after that for £5 a month.
  • No pressure to continue after the free period.

I aim to support around three groups each month.

Who it's for

Community First Web is for groups that mainly exist to help people take part in community activities, rather than typical commercial businesses.

This includes charities, volunteer projects, youth clubs, sports clubs, dance groups, arts groups and local support groups.

Charging a small membership or activity fee is fine where the group's main purpose is community participation.

What your website could show

  • What your group does and who it's for.
  • How people can join or get involved.
  • Session times and activities.
  • Where to find you.
  • How to get in touch.

The aim is to make the important information easy to find. You can read the full details in the Community First Web Terms and Conditions.

Availability

If this month's places are full, your application may be considered for the following month.

Community Lite is a separate paid website package available to any community group. You can find it on the Services & Pricing page.

About your group

Start with the basics so I can understand what your group does and who it supports.

Your website

This helps me understand whether you need a first website or help with an existing one.

Do you currently have a website?
