Case Study: Worthing Borough Council launches an accessible place brand website with Huxley

Worthing Borough Council launches Time for Worthing website on time with Huxley

Worthing Borough Council sought to create a primary digital platform to promote the borough regionally, nationally, and internationally under its new "Time for Worthing" place brand. The council needed a website that would bring this brand to life in a contemporary way, providing vibrant and actionable information for visitors, investors, and those looking to relocate. They engaged the vendor Huxley for its web development and UX design services to meet this challenge.

Huxley collaborated closely with the council's multiple stakeholders, conducting workshops and user research to inform an agile design and development process. The solution was an accessible and intuitive WordPress website with a shallow structure, member login functionality, and integrated listing features. The project was launched on time and successfully provides a hub for engaging all of Worthing's audiences. Huxley continues to support the site to ensure accessibility compliance and improve the user experience through ongoing research.
