We would like to introduce you to Chris Armshaw, who has been volunteering with the IT department since February. Chris has also helped design the template for Fresh News, our new monthly newsletter.

I am a volunteer web developer and assist with the building of websites for Freshwinds IT.

I studied computing at university so had a reasonably good knowledge of web design/development, but there were plenty of areas I wanted to improve upon.

When I started at Freshwinds, WordPress was still quite new to me but as a volunteer I was able to develop these skills through self teaching and support from those around me.

As my skills have developed, I have been given more responsibility which has helped me gain more confidence and experience in this field.
