For local people

Keep your community online.

Sponsor the website of a village hall, club or local group for £20 a month. Do it on your own, or team up with neighbours and share the cost.

Why it matters

A practical way to give back

Most community groups are run by volunteers with very little money and even less spare time. A good website helps people find them, join them and hire them. Your £20 a month makes that possible.

Help people find them

Opening times, events, contact details and news, all in one place that is always up to date.

Take a load off volunteers

The group sends me one batch of changes a week and I do the rest. No logging in, no learning anything new.

See where it goes

Your money keeps a real, live website running, and you can visit it any time to see what you are supporting.

Better together

Share the £20 with neighbours

You do not have to cover it all yourself. A few friends, neighbours or local businesses can split the £20, and I will credit everyone who chips in.

For example, four neighbours at £5 a month each keeps a whole village hall website running.

Your credit, your choice

  • Full name, first name only, or anonymous
  • A shared credit when several people sponsor together
  • No say over what the group publishes, and no obligations
How it works

Four steps to sponsoring

Pick a group you care about, or leave it to me and fund the next one on the waiting list.

Tell me who you are

Send a short enquiry. Say which community you would like to support, or that you are happy for me to choose.

Choose your credit

Decide whether to be credited by name, first name only or anonymously, and whether others are sharing with you.

Set up payment

I send a secure link to set up your monthly payment by card, through Stripe. Stop at any time and payments stop.

See it live

Your credit goes onto the community's website, and you can visit it whenever you like.

Good to know

Straight answers

It is a sponsorship, not a donation. JW is not a charity, so Gift Aid does not apply. Your £20 pays for the website to be built, hosted and kept up to date.

No contract. Stop whenever you want. If you stop, the community's site stays live for three months while a new sponsor is found.

Keep a local group online

A short enquiry is all it takes. I will reply, usually the same day, and we will take it from there.
