Poplar Harca
Poplar HARCA is a
Housing Association. They own and manage over 4,700 homes
in the Poplar area of London and have a social regeneration
programme, run through a network of neighbourhood centers.
The issue
Poplar needed a site that was easy to update, manage and maintain as
IT staff were spending most of their time working on the website that
residents rarely used.
The solution
Jamkit
designed and produced a content-managed site that was more accessible
to users, and which could be updated quickly and easily by office
staff. The site has recently been updated with a bright and lively new
look to appeal to residents and restructured to ensure it delivers key
information about services, contacts and advice.
The result
Poplar
now see the site as a valuable way of showcasing the work being done
throughout Poplar, and of communicating with local residents by
providing more online services.
Highlights:
- Increase in user numbers
- Approval from the Plain English Campaign
- A site that appeals to the target audience
