Digital

Home page format

The home page should be informative, inviting, concise and easy to read.

You should provide enough information so visitors will:

  1. recognise what is being offered
  2. want to read and explore further
  3. be able to easily navigate the website

News and events, if updated regularly, can give visitors a good idea of activity.
