Websites & digital presence
A website that reflects who you are, works on every device, and you can actually update yourself. From simple brochure sites to membership platforms and online booking.
Digital tools & AI support
Technology that works for people who do good work.
We build affordable websites, bespoke tools, and AI-powered solutions for charities, community organisations, and small businesses. Plain English. No jargon. Real results.
The problem we solve
You know you should be doing more with technology. You just haven't found the right person to help.
Most charities and small organisations are in the same position. You have a website that's five years out of date. Your team uses a patchwork of spreadsheets, email chains, and WhatsApp groups to get things done. You've heard about AI and you know it could save time — but you don't know where to start, and you can't afford to get it wrong.
What you need isn't a large agency with a large invoice. You need someone who understands how your organisation actually works, can explain things in plain English, and will build something your team can genuinely use.
What we offer
Practical digital work, done well.
Bespoke tools & apps
Custom-built tools that solve your specific problem — grant tracking, volunteer coordination, referral systems, member portals, dashboards. If your team has been making do with spreadsheets, there's probably a better way.
AI support & adoption
Whether it's saving time on reports and funding bids, building AI into your systems, or simply running a workshop to demystify what AI can and can't do — we help you use it confidently and safely.
Why PMFRE
We're not a faceless agency.
PMFRE is run by Paul Edwards, a senior technology leader with 25 years' experience working in and alongside public services, charities, and community organisations. Paul is a Director of Shropshire Thriving Communities Alliance and has worked directly with the voluntary and community sector — so he understands your pressures, your funding constraints, and why things that work in theory sometimes fall apart in practice.
We work with you, not at you. That means plain conversations, realistic timescales, and technology that fits your organisation rather than the other way around.

AI that actually helps
AI is genuinely useful. But only if it's used in the right way.
There's a lot of noise about artificial intelligence right now. Some of it is hype. But a good portion of it is real — and organisations that start building AI-literacy now will have a significant advantage in the years ahead.
We use AI tools (including Anthropic's Claude) in our own development work, which means we build faster and more affordably than a traditional agency. We can also help your team adopt AI tools for things like drafting funding bids, summarising reports, and analysing data — with proper guidance on how to do it safely and in line with your data policies.
No hype. No overclaiming. Just honest guidance on what works.
