HeadRed have been appointed by local tennis coaching company, Inspire 2 Coach, to deliver a new website and overhaul their existing online presence.

Inspire 2 Coach runs a wide range of tennis programs for all ages and abilities at a family of clubs in Warwickshire and Worcestershire. They also offer packages of coaching courses, workshops and mentoring for all levels of coaches and teachers.

Our work will include the creation of a new brand identity for Inspire 2 Coach. This will form the basis of the website’s overall look-and-feel with the aim of enticing and engaging visitors.

The site itself will provide a platform for budding Andy Murrays of the future to find coaching courses local to them and book a place online. Similarly, tennis coaches and teachers will have access to a wealth of information and details of how they can enroll on programs of their own.

The new site is currently under development and we are working towards a summer launch.
More details to follow.

CV One has recently commissioned HeadRed to revamp their website for the Godiva Festival – the biggest free family festival in Coventry!

For what is an incredibly vibrant and exciting festival, their existing website does not paint a particularly good picture. Our task is to transform the site into an engaging, innovative and visually striking portal for both the festival and the local community.

A key part of the redevelopment will be the effective use of web 2.0 technologies in order to create and retain an active online community. The new site will feature a Godiva Blog, a user forum, a photo-sharing image gallery, podcasts, video and more.

When it is launched the site will be able to rub shoulders with the top dogs of the UK festival scene and be a benchmark website that all will aspire to.
The festival itself attracts over 75,000 visitors each year and has featured heavyweight bands including The Enemy, Kasabian and The Fratellis. If you’d be interested in becoming a sponsor for the event then please contact Dave Wright at CV One for further information.

HeadRed have shaken hands with local haulers, Woodfields, to redevelop their e-commerce driven website.

Woodfields have over 70 years experience in the haulage industry, supplying their customers with landscaping products, topsoil and waste recycling services. Their website acts as the online face for the company and needs to provide Woodfields with a quick and easy portal for selling their products.

Our redevelopment will focus on the customer’s experience and ensuring their path around the site and their route to purchase is as streamlined as possible.

The website for long-time HeadRed client French Selection has received a much needed makeover.

French Selection UK is a leading recruitment consultancy who specialise in the placement of multilingual professionals. Their website was originally launched by HeadRed back in 2004 and has been used to source employees for clients and jobs for candidates ever since.

Now, four years on, the site has been refreshed and brought up to date with modern web design standards. The finished version is clean and airy but also colourful and vibrant. Clear calls-to-action engage visitors at the point of entry and allow for guided routes through to relevant information.

We’re certainly very proud of it. Take a look at the new face of French Selection here: http://www.french-selection.co.uk/

Shoes On is an independent retailer specialising in children’s and ladies’ shoes. The company was set up by shoe experts and professional mothers Sam Hill and Lynne Bromnick with the aim of making children’s shoe shopping and fitting a fun and convenient process.

HeadRed worked with Sam and Lynne in the design and development of the Shoes On website, which was launched at the end of November. In addition to many popular brands of kid’s shoes the site also sells a range of ladies footwear to cater for the ultimate mother and child shopping experience.

The site was designed with this target audience in mind with vibrant colours and imagery overlying a simple, easy-to-use e-commerce system.

The Recent Advances in Assistive Technology and Engineering, or RAATE for short, is a UK conference focused on the latest innovations and developments in assistive technology.

RAATE 2008 was organised and hosted by the Health Design and Technology Institute (HDTI), whom HeadRed designed their website for last year.

The website for RAATE needs to paint a professional picture of the conference to potential delegates in order to encourage registrations, and it is felt that the current site could be greatly improved in these areas. The HDTI have therefore commissioned HeadRed to oversee a complete overhaul of the website in preparation for next year’s event at the Coventry Hilton.

Whilst the RAATE site is redeveloped a temporary holding page will be placed on the HDTI website containing details of where and when next year’s conference is to be held.

The new site for RAATE 2009 is expected to be launched in Quarter 1 next year.
