Websites for Local Charities and Non-Profits
Websites That Help Charities Share Their Work and Reach More People
SlashDotDash Ltd creates websites for local charities, community groups and non-profit organisations that need a clear, accessible and easy-to-manage online presence.
Your website should help people understand who you are, what you do, who you support and how they can get involved. It should make it easy for visitors to donate, volunteer, ask for help, attend events, access information or contact your organisation.
We design and build secure, responsive WordPress websites that support your mission and help your organisation communicate more clearly.

- Publish news and updates
- Share impact stories

Built Around Your Mission
A charity website should quickly answer important questions:
- Who do you help?
- What do you do?
- How can people access support?

- Why should visitors trust your organisation?
We help structure your website so visitors can understand your purpose and take the right next step.
Your website can include:
- About us
- Our mission
- Services or support pages
- Donate page
- Volunteer page
- Events
- News
- Case studies
- Impact stories
- Fundraising campaigns
- Partner information
- Contact forms
- Policies
- FAQs
- Accessibility information
Accessible Website Design
Accessibility matters for every website, but it is especially important for charities and non-profits supporting local communities.
We can help create websites that are easier for more people to use, with attention to:
- Clear layouts
- Readable text
- Logical headings
- Mobile-friendly design
- Keyboard-friendly navigation
- Accessible forms
- Clear links and buttons
- Alternative text for images
- Good colour contrast
- Simple page structure
An accessible website helps more people engage with your organisation, especially those using assistive technology or browsing on different devices.

Donation, Volunteer and Contact Calls to Action
our website should make it easy for people to support your work.
We can include clear calls to action such as:
- Donate now
- Volunteer with us
- Get support
- Refer someone
- Join our mailing list
- Attend an event
- Sponsor our work
- Contact the team
- Make an enquiry
- Partner with us
These actions can be placed throughout the website so visitors always know what to do next.
Service and Support Pages
Many charities provide more than one service, project or support pathway. We can help organise these into clear pages that are easy to understand.
This can include pages for:
- Advice and guidance
- Community support
- Youth services
- Older people’s services
- Disability support
- Mental health support
- Food or essentials support
- Training and workshops
- Outreach projects
- Local programmes
- Referral information
Clear service pages help visitors find the right support quickly and help funders understand the value of your work.
Impact Stories and Case Studies
Charities and non-profits often need to show the difference they make.
Your website can include impact-focused content such as:
- Case studies
- Project outcomes
- Community stories
- Testimonials
- Annual report highlights
- Fundraising updates
- Partner stories
- Photo galleries
- Campaign results
This helps build trust with supporters, funders, volunteers and the wider community.
