Concept identity
A welcoming editorial layout combines a simple programme with colourful gathering forms. Clear dates and readable descriptions take priority over promotional graphics containing embedded text.

The imagined brief
imagines a community organisation bringing local activities and practical information together. Visitors might be exploring something new, returning for a familiar group or looking for a way to contribute. The website needs to make current activities easy to understand without assuming prior knowledge of the organisation.
The customer challenge
A noticeboard of undated posts can leave newcomers unsure what is still running or who an activity is for. This concept gives activities a consistent, maintainable information structure.

Design for the newcomer
Content explains how participation begins and who to contact with questions. It avoids insider abbreviations and assumptions that everyone knows the venue or organiser.
Separate participation from contribution
Volunteering and partnership information have their own route. Someone looking to attend an activity should not have to navigate organisational information first.
03 / In your handConsidered for

a smaller screen.
Dates and activity names remain paired in the programme. Practical details are written as text, and the contact route is accessible from every activity page.

Proposed content topics for this imagined business, rather than measured search volumes or ranking claims.
01What makes an activity listing useful?
A clear purpose, intended audience, current date or schedule and the way to take part. An attractive poster alone often leaves important questions unanswered.
02How should older activities be handled?
Their status should be clear. Archived information can remain useful, but it should not appear in a current programme without context.
