I was chatting to a lovely guy named Martin in Heather’s café the other day and asked him to take a look through our website—it’s still very new, and I’m no mastermind! I’m learning as I go. Martin spent a while having a good look around, then asked, “Where can I actually find out what’s on and when?” That’s when I realised—I’d left out such an important detail!
When I tried to explain how our sessions work, it was obvious why I’d struggled to put it online: it’s all a bit complicated, with some groups running on alternating weeks and not everything happening in the same place every time. Honestly, I just couldn’t see a simple way to show it all.
Then today, while working from home (and actually testing out a virtual assistant online!), we came up with the idea of embedding a Google Calendar right onto the website. So simple, but such a game changer!
Now, you should be able to click on any day to see what’s on, where it’s happening, and a little description of what to expect. If there are extra activities or changes, they’ll be listed there too.
Please let me know if anything isn’t working properly—it’s just me (Jo) managing things at the moment, so I can’t always check everything myself! And as always, we’re relying on your support and sponsorship to keep going. Even £3 or £10 a month makes a massive difference to what we can offer the community.
