Ramblings from the folk at ICON!

Our newly launched and revamped website for the Gloucester Heritage Urban Regeneration Company (GHURC) features a forward looking design and utilises the latest interactive and social media to engage users allowing them to share any page onto their individual social media/networking profiles.

Not only is there a new customisable Home page featuring draggable and collapsable panels that are remembered for each user, but users can also choose their preferred background image which stays with them as they navigate the rest of the website.

Videos from YouTube and images from Flickr help to power each of the Magnificent Seven pages. In addition, the latest tweets from GHURC on the home page, help people keep right up to date with what’s going on in the City.

New city heritage website is live.

The latest updated version of our Gloucester Heritage URC interactive website – designed to encourage participation in the regeneration of Gloucester – has now gone live at www.gloucesterurc.co.uk

GHURC Chief Executive Chris Oldershaw said:

“The regeneration of Gloucester is a living, breathing project, and the continuing input of those who have an interest in the City is essential if we are to deliver a successful scheme by 2012.”

Visitors to the site will be able to read a regularly updated blog written by Chris and have their say on each of the ‘Magnifient Seven’ key regeneration projects. The site will also stream the on-going video diary currently being made by youth and community groups across the city, tracking the changes taking place as Gloucester’s £1 billion regeneration programme gains pace. A news page keeps visitors up to date with the wide range of projects and developments which are now taking place across the City.
