NHS Barnsley
NHS Barnsley has approximately 2,500 staff including: nurses, clinicians, professional, administrative and clerical staff. The trust also works in partnership with the local council, GPs,dentists and pharmacists, across more than 70 sites in Barnsley.
Challenge:
Barnsley Primary Care Trust required a CMS that would allow them to develop and manage their website inhouse. The CMS was needed to allow the trust to communicate with their audience as efficiently as possible.
Solution:
A new external website was required to provide an accessible area for the Trust to provide
information to stakeholders, members of the public and staff and also to support staff in their professional roles by enabling document and information sharing to happen quickly and easily. It was essential for the Trust to have tighter control over what content was being published on the site and when, and this needed to be easily managed on-site by staff members.
“Sitekit CMS helps us reach a much wider audience very efficiently. We have a 46% increase in website traffic, this is due to search engine traffic more than doubling".

Web Services Manager
Results:
The new website ws live within four weeks of Sitekit and Bloom Media being selected .
The Trust say the feedback received about the site by its users has been excellent and they now have immediate control over what information is published on the site. The site now works around the staff’s needs and they can deal with most modification requests in-house.
