Case Study: Angling Trust achieves a secure, streamlined grant platform with Wirebox Wagtail support

Angling Trust streamlines grant workflows with Wirebox

The Angling Trust needed to support and secure its grant and funding website, which was built on Wagtail CMS. Their challenge was that the site's software, including Wagtail 5.2 and PostgreSQL 13, had reached end-of-life and was no longer receiving security updates, creating a critical risk for the platform hosted on Heroku. They engaged Wirebox to take over the site's maintenance.

Wirebox upgraded the Wagtail CMS to the latest long-term support version and migrated the PostgreSQL database to a supported release. They also implemented proactive monitoring and redesigned the grant application process to make it simpler for users and reduce administrative overhead. The solution provided by Wirebox resulted in a secure, stable platform with streamlined workflows for both applicants and the Angling Trust's internal team.
