Well-known member
Over the last several months our Web Officer, Gary Douthwaite, has been working hard to give the CNCC's website a facelift.
The updated site has been launched this week, at the same address as usual:
www.cncc.org.uk
Regular users of the website will notice only cosmetic changes. All the usual information is just as accessible as before. However, behind the scenes, the website has been redeveloped to enable simpler content management and implement security updates.
Importantly, the entire site is now fully mobile phone friendly, whereas previously some parts did not work as they should. Our stats show that 57% of all access to our website is from a mobile, so ensuring mobile-device optimisation is essential.
For anyone not yet familiar with our website, you can:
