Charity is over the moon after web win

Jul 30 2012 by Jeff Holmes, Paisley Daily Express  MORE people who suffer from multiple sclerosis will be able to switch on to the services provided by a Paisley charity after it won a new £10,000 website.

Revive MS Support, which operates an outreach centre in the town, scooped the unusual prize in a competition run by leading web design firm Mercurytide.

The software development company organised the contest to celebrate their 10th anniversary and invited members of the public to nominate their favourite charity.

After receiving over 400 nominations for different charitable organisations, Mercurytide were delighted to announce Revive MS Support as the winners and they will now receive a website to the value of £10,000.

Cara Doran, of Revive MS Support, told the Paisley Daily Express:
 “It is an amazing feeling to have won such a high-profile competition. The staff and trustees at Revive are over the moon. We were jumping about the office when we heard the good news. This will make a massive difference to how we communicate with our clients and supporters online and will make it much easier for people to engage with our services and fundraising events. Thank you so much to everyone from Mercurytide. This prize is so much appreciated.”

Three runner-up charities will each receive a day’s free consultation to help them develop their marketing, social media and search engine optimisation strategies.

Bosses at Mercurytide said the standard of entries was extremely high.


Tamlin Roberts, who is managing director of Mercurytide and was one of the competition judges, visited the Revive MS Support offices to learn more about the charity’s work.

He said: “I was struck by how individual in nature MS is, how it affects different people in different ways and how Revive MS Support have helped MS sufferers get the most from life. I am really pleased that such a worthy cause has won our competition and we can now be a small part of the great work that they do.”

Mercurytide have developed solutions for a wide range of clients, both in the UK and around the world, from the construction industry to the hospitality industry and from small brochure websites to complex management systems and mobile apps.

The team like nothing better than a challenge and are looking forward to using their talents to give something back to a very worthy organisation.
