Joe was skilled at finding out how I wanted my website to function and look. He listened to what I wanted but because of his comprehensive knowledge of web design, he was able to suggest more excellent ideas so that my finished site was much better than I could have imagined. He is efficient, replied to my emails swiftly and communicated his ideas. I would recommend him to anyone wanting to make their website work for them and work well.

Joe's thoughtful branding and thorough website design for CropDrop has made a significant contribution to our credibility as a professional and reliable community organisation, allowing us to gain the trust and recommendations of allotment holders and affordable food projects quickly. Without it we would not have achieved such a successful network for sharing fresh produce, which makes a positive difference to people living with food insecurity in Bath & NE Somerset.
