London, Monday 10 February 2025: We are delighted to announce the launch of our newly redesigned and enhanced website – a significant milestone in our charity’s growth and ambition. This leading-edge platform reflects the standards and excellence that define every aspect of our organisation.
The redesign has significantly improved our website’s functionality, presentation, user experience, and overall performance. The primary goal was to create an innovative, user-friendly platform that engages our target audiences and streamlines their journey, ultimately expanding our reach and impact in fulfilling our social purpose.
What’s new?
Improved User Experience: Our website now features a more intuitive and user-friendly interface, ensuring that visitors can quickly and easily find the information they need, utilising sophisticated SEO algorithms to guide users seamlessly.
Enhanced accessibility: Our commitment to inclusivity is reflected in our new website, which adheres to higher accessibility standards, ensuring clear navigation and full functionality for all users. Every element has been designed for easy interaction, providing an inclusive and engaging experience for everyone.
New Family Hub: Replacing the Parent Hub, our new Family Hub provides tailored information, advice, and resources for all families, empowering them to navigate the challenges of the digital playground and take practical steps to safeguard children and support their well-being.
Improved resource library: We have made significant enhancements to the functionality of our resource library, offering an improved user experience in accessing, organising, and utilising our materials. These upgrades make it easier for users to integrate our resources effectively into their roles and environments.
Streamlined booking system: Booking one of our workshops is now easier than ever with our user-friendly booking system. Users can quickly explore our various training programmes and register for a date and delivery method that suits them—all in just a few clicks!
Research and Insights: Understanding the evidence and interpreting robust research are essential to our work. Our website provides users with the latest statistics and in-depth analysis in gaming, gambling, and digital safeguarding, ensuring access to the most up-to-date insights in the field.
Ygam has worked closely with Studio Republic, a leading charity specialist agency, over several months to engage with our stakeholders and beneficiaries, understand their needs, and develop a website that meets our goals. We would like to thank everyone involved in the process for their valuable contributions to delivering such a successful outcome.
