Take a look at it on your desktop, and then check it on a small screen.

The site automatically repurposes the layout so that the 2 columns become one. The sidebar automatically tucks in under the main content, making it much easier to read on narrower screens.

It’s not a separate site – all the content and images are the same. We use “magic” to display the same content in a different way, to better suite the device.

The website also features a “members section” – each member has their own username and password, and they can log in and update their own profice and capabilities statement on the website.
