BUSINESS support and help is now even more accessible - and exciting - thanks to the launch of a new website.

The Chamber of Commerce Herefordshire and Worcester- shire backs thousands of businesses every year in the two counties, helping them to expand, diversify, grow and become more profitable.

Now, the chamber's new-look website, www.hwchamber.co.uk, has been launched to round off a year when the chamber also launched new membership packages, extra commercial services and a new logo and corporate image.

The website is fresher, brighter, more engaging and far easier to navigate than the previous site, which was about three years old.

Chamber patron member iRevolution designed the website, working closely with the chamber's knowledge systems developer, Rayhana Rahman, and marketing assistant Joanne Proudler.

"The new website is part of our commitment to continually making sure our offer is relevant to our membership network. As such, it will continue to grow and develop and evolve over time," said Ms Rahman.

An events and seminars calendar will soon be added to the site as will a special members-only area.
