# St Mary's Church

> We rebuilt the website for St Mary's Church, a historic Nottingham landmark, on WordPress with a simplified admin so parish staff can update it themselves.

Its existing website suffered from outdated design and rigid content management, making it difficult for staff to keep their schedule current, a critical function for announcing services, community events, and parish news to locals. The technical challenge involved creating a solution that was visually befitting of the landmark's heritage while being intuitive enough for the church's non-technical staff to manage independently.

We collaborated closely with the Vicar to develop a WordPress solution with an off-the-shelf theme and tailored administrative interface. By building a simpler calendar management system with recurring event support, we eliminated the previous workflow bottlenecks that had plagued their communication efforts.

We're happy to say that they're still using the same infrastructure from 2018. *We build websites to last.*
