What Our Clients Say

            
                        “Mackman Group created a fantastic website for St Peter’s, and this was no doubt an important factor in raising the profile of our work there, leading to significant funding towards our £2.5M regeneration project. Mackman gave us a beautiful website that gives us complete independence to update and maintain the online presence of St Peter’s easily and efficiently, safe in the knowledge that the Mackman team are there to ensure technical updates and stability. It has enabled us to run important campaigns to fundraise and to recruit new volunteers, and the site integrates seamlessly with other third party software which has enabled us to sell tickets to events and link to our social media platforms, significantly widening the reach of our audiences, all which is crucial to our success.”
                        
Alli Burke, Development Officer - The Churches Conservation Trust

To add interest they visited our premises and took photos and video footage to complement our brand message. We highly recommend Mackman for your website and design needs.”

Featured case study image

Professional Services

Holmes & Hills is a leading law firm with five offices across Essex and Suffolk. With a unique approach to working with and understanding their clients, the firm acts as a trusted advisor. However, the existing client perception of Holmes & Hills was more traditional and localised around each individual office, rather than as a large corporate brand.

Featured case study image

As a destination East Mersea lacked a key landmark for families, outdoor enthusiasts and the local community to share. Mackman was approached with a blank canvas, and an exciting challenge. Our aim was to build a desirable space that would entice visitors, celebrate the quality of Mersea Barns' offering, and evoke memories of the island.

Mackman has collaborated with the European Consortium for Political Research (ECPR) on several projects over the years, from refining their brand identity to designing their website, and more recently as part of their ongoing 50th anniversary celebrations, implementing a blog platform to bring together ideas and research from all branches of political science.
