LimbPower launches new website
LimbPower, the national charity is proud to reveal its brand new website. Designed and created to support more amputees and people with limb impairments to take part in sport and physical activity at all levels.
Since being awarded status as a National Disability Sports Organisation in July 2014, LimbPower’s growing online presence through web traffic and social media meant a new website has been a high priority for charity. We are delighted to unveil the new hub of useful information, resources and participation opportunities, all designed to encourage people with limb impairments to be more active.
Working with web designers Square Daisy, LimbPower has worked hard to create a new user-friendly website. Last year as part of the project, they conducted user research about the way people access their current website and what content they find most useful and engaging. The new website has been built using responsive design, demonstrating the charity’s new ‘mobile first’ approach to its digital channels.
Creation of the new look www.Limbpower.com was supported by Sport England’s Inclusive Sport Fund and is a key part of LimbPower’s aim to put each person in touch with the right sport or leisure activity for their needs and ability.
Features of the new site includes a ‘Getting Started’ section that provides advice and information on how you can start being more active. As well as an event calendar showing both upcoming LimbPower and partner events for amputees and people with limb impairments.
Kiera Roche, Chief Executive of LimbPower, said:
“As more people use mobile devices to access information, it became a priority for us to rebuild our website. In order for us to keep up with demand and the changing environment, and provide our users with a better online experience. The new website features lots of useful and relevant information on the opportunities and support LimbPower offer, as well as all the wonderful work our partners and other charities do to encourage more people with limb loss to be active.”
