Farnham Online Case Study

Farnham Town Council

Farnham Online is the website for Farnham Town Council – an online resource for residents, visitors and businesses. Farnham is an old English market town one hour south-west of London with narrow streets lined with some of the finest Georgian architecture in the South of England. The parish church and castle date back to the 12th Century.

The brief:
WiseTiger won a five-way pitch to design and produce the town’s website. Our brief was to produce an appealing and informative website to provide information to the residents of Farnham as well as promoting tourism and business in and around the town. 

The website was also required to conform with the W3C Web Accessibility Guidelines and be built with a Content Management System to allow the team to edit content and add pages to the site.

The Answer:
The design of the website features a specially commissioned illustration of Farnham’s landmark buildings set against a backdrop of the River Wey and the North Downs. The site has been structured into four areas – for visitors, residents, businesses, and information about the council. Other features of the site include a news and events section, a live weather feed, online video and a document download library for council forms, committee minutes and agendas.

The Result:
Farnham Online is already being recognised as one of the best local authority websites in the UK for design, accessibility and content.
