Click Return was thrilled to collaborate with St Luke’s Community Centre in South Islington, London, to completely overhaul their website. As a vibrant hub of community activities, St Luke’s needed a modern, user-friendly site that could enhance their online presence, improve accessibility, and streamline membership management.
Challenge:
St Luke’s previous website was difficult to navigate, not optimised fully for search engines, and lacked the necessary tools to manage the centre’s memberships and room hire services efficiently. They needed a site that would be intuitive for users while incorporating vital functionality, such as membership processing.
Solution:
Working closely with St Luke’s team, we focused on creating a website that addressed their immediate needs and long-term goals:
- Membership Works Integration: To streamline membership management, we integrated a plug-in called Membership Works, which allowed St Luke’s to easily process memberships, track activities, and manage events at the centre. This tool helped improve their workflow, making it easier for staff and more efficient for members.
- Room Hire Pages Focus: We optimised the Room Hire section of the website, making it easier for potential clients to find information and book spaces. This helped increase room hire inquiries, one of the key revenue streams for the centre.
- Accessible Design & User Experience: We ensured the website adhered to accessibility standards, providing easy navigation and a clean, modern layout that catered to users of all abilities. The new design was also fully responsive across all devices.
- SEO Optimisation: We implemented a strong SEO strategy to boost their online visibility, ensuring that the centre could attract new users and clients through improved search engine rankings.

Outcome:
The result was a modern, functional, and SEO-optimised website that has dramatically improved the user experience for both visitors and the staff at St Luke’s. The Membership Works integration has streamlined administrative processes, and the enhanced room hire pages have led to increased bookings. Overall, St Luke’s now has an effective digital platform that supports their mission and allows them to serve their community more efficiently.
