Reason Digital<\/h1>\n

When you grow up with computers and the web you grow up believing that things can always be made better – that you can change things.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s what Reason Digital<\/a> is really all about.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re social enterprise that makes the web make a difference. We only work on projects that do social good.<\/p>\n

Right now, we\u2019re saving sex workers\u2019 lives with a Comic Relief-funded smartphone app. We\u2019re boosting charities\u2019 incomes by transforming the way the British public gives goods to charities, with Cancer Research UK and The British Heart Foundation. We\u2019re helping to connect people with food banks, with the Trussell Trust. And we can say that we did our bit towards helping Alzheimer\u2019s Research UK on their quest to find a cure for dementia.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all for good. And that\u2019s a brilliant thing to be able to put your skills towards.<\/p>\n

So WordCamp Manchester? Why are we sponsoring it?<\/p>\n

Well, WordPress, to us, is a liberator.<\/p>\n

We often work with small-to-midsize charities that are locked into a proprietary CMS, created by well-intentioned, but under-resourced web dev agencies, or freelancers.<\/p>\n

We use WordPress to give them the control of their site back, and the freedom to work with whoever they want without ongoing licensing fees. Be that us, another agency, or a volunteer. That said, part of the power of WordPress, since v3, is its ability to be used as a framework for bigger projects. We\u2019ve launched larger charity sites now – you can read more about some of the charity websites<\/a> we\u2019ve worked on, to get an idea of what we do.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve had the privilege of being able to lend a hand to some inspiring people that are working to change the world. And we\u2019ve used WordPress to help them do it.<\/p>\n

Oh, and by the way, we\u2019re always looking for talented WordPress folk at Reason Digital. Especially people with PHP skills. So if you\u2019d like to get paid to help us make the world a better place, instead of making some rich guys slightly richer, then get in touch with us at: http:\/\/www.reasondigital.com\/get-in-touch<\/a>. We\u2019re based in Manchester, UK, and, as well as being a great bunch of people, we also have an ice cream machine and an office balcony. Just in case you were wondering.<\/p>\n
