Pulp Friction – Community Support Website
Even charities require a strong online presence in today’s digital-first society to interact with supporters, share their mission and reach more people. The Nottingham-based organization, Pulp Friction CIO, hired Apptechies to develop a cutting-edge custom website that expresses their vision, shows their work and encourages community participation.
What is Pulp Friction?
A United Kingdom-based company called Pulp Friction CIO works to help those who have learning difficulties and autism. Their work focuses on building skills, promoting independence and offering genuine job opportunities. They run programs such as day support services, catering projects and social gatherings, designed to strengthen all individuals and create a more inclusive society.
About Project
Pulp Friction wanted a website that not only educates but also motivates. They needed a platform that reflects their mission, highlights success stories and offers a simple option for individuals to get involved, donate or volunteer. Because their current digital appearance was not completely capturing the depth of his work.
