    Abstract27 builds websites for charities, associations, federations and parent committees: a newsletter sent from the site, paid memberships, online donations and member directories, run by volunteers without technical skills. We install, host and maintain it for £25 a month, with no setup fee — or build the whole site for you for £749 once.

    Websites we designed and run for associations and charities. Click a site to read the case study.

    What a charity or association website needs

    • A newsletter inside the website — write a post, send it to members from the same screen, no separate emailing subscription. Labels let you write to volunteers, donors or the committee only.
    • Memberships and fees through Stripe, renewed automatically.
    • Online donations, including Gift Aid for UK charities.
    • A directory of members, partners or local groups.
    • Events split into upcoming and past.
    • Bilingual pages and lists, so nobody gets an email in the wrong language.

    Built on Ghost, open-source software you own

    Every site we build runs on Ghost®, the open-source publishing platform. The editor is as simple as writing an email, the newsletter is built in, pages load fast, and your content and subscriber list can be exported at any time — nothing is locked in. Ghost is the only platform we build on.

    What we have built

    Price

    £25 a month in one language or £40 a month bilingual: we install your professional website and run it — hosting, security updates, daily backups and newsletter. No setup fee: you add your own texts with an editor as simple as writing an email, and you can cancel any time. Want us to build it all for you — pages written up, your existing content moved across, launch and training? Full website creation is £749 once, live in 7 days. See plans and pricing.

    How it works

    1. Free call. You tell us about your organisation and what the site must do; we tell you exactly what we would build.
    2. Your site installed within a week. We set up your website, newsletter and forms — the same day if it is urgent — and you add your texts. With full website creation (£749 once), we build your pages too: written up, your existing content moved across, live in 7 days. If you prefer, we build it first on a beta site of ours: you check that everything works, and only when it suits you do we move it to your official domain, safely.
    3. We run it for you. Hosting, updates, backups and changes on request are included. You publish when you want, we handle the rest. We adapt to what you need — our client reviews say so.

    What our clients say about working with Abstract27: websites designed, built and run for them.

    Jérémy is a professional who listens, is responsive, and always offers sound advice. He brought my design to life, respecting my wishes down to the smallest detail, while finding simple and effective solutions so I can easily manage my website. Always available and incredibly patient, he truly takes the time to help and find solutions. It's a real pleasure to work with him, and I recommend him without hesitation!

    Valérie A. · ★★★★★ · October 2026 · Google review

    Working with Abstract was one of the best professional decisions I made to boost my online presence and digital prospecting efforts. I initially built my website on Webflow, but I quickly realized that I wouldn't be able to easily manage updates because the system is complex… whereas with Abstract, it's very intuitive… a breeze. Jérémie did an exceptional job giving the site the look and feel I envisioned. He also gave me invaluable advice on streamlining and optimizing the customer experience. I'm thrilled: I'm autonomous, efficient, and well-structured.

    Anne V. · ★★★★★ · October 2026 · Google review

    I contacted Jérémie and Abstrat27 to create the website for my financial education platform. I had a specific set of requirements: to translate the brand strategy and graphic charter developed beforehand, to secure the content, especially the paid courses, while retaining full ownership of my content, and above all, to have a user-friendly website that I could easily update as I produced new content (I'm completely unfamiliar with computers). They succeeded! The website accurately reflects my vision, and I have complete autonomy to update it as my content evolves. I'm truly delighted with the result, and a huge thank you to Jérémie, who guided me and kept me focused on all my requirements. I highly recommend them!

    anais S. · ★★★★★ · September 2026 · Google review

    We used Abstrat27 to set up our website using Ghost and couldn't be happier. Jérémie really listened to what we needed, understood our vision and came up with great advice. From start to full migration, everything was handled efficiently. We love how easy it is to manage the website by ourselves now, which was exactly what we wanted. On top of that, Jérémie is incredibly available and explains everything clearly. Very professional, reliable and genuinely helpful! Highly recommend!

    Club P. · ★★★★★ · March 2026 · Google review

    I’d been using WordPress for years, but wanted something lighter and more modern. Jeremie handled the entire migration to Ghost, and honestly, he did an outstanding job. Everything went smoothly from start to finish — he was professional, responsive, and really listened to what I needed. I’m genuinely happy with the result. Ghost is a fantastic platform — clean, fast, and enjoyable to use — and Jeremie’s work made all the difference. I’d absolutely recommend him!

    French A. · ★★★★★ · July 2025 · Google review

    I would like to commend Jérémie Raude-Leroy for his remarkable commitment and expertise in managing our cultural and predictive platform, APAR.TV. His responsiveness and unparalleled guidance enabled a lightning-fast transition from our WordPress infrastructure to Ghost. Jérémie brilliantly orchestrated the migration of thousands of author accounts while simultaneously resetting all of our email accounts. Thanks to his expertise and professionalism, Jérémie not only met our expectations but exceeded them, delivering exemplary service. For all these reasons, we extend our sincerest thanks and affirm that he deserves our complete and unwavering trust.

    Thank you Jeremie Raude-Leroy and Abstract27 - London Web Agency for the introduction to the Ghost #opensource solution and the help with creating and hosting our new website! It is a fantastic milestone for www.airc.digital in sharing our #openbim philosophy with the world!

    Pierre S. · ★★★★★ · June 2024 · Google review

    I wish I could give more than 5 stars, because the website Abstract27 made for me definitely is something else. I didn't know Ghost CMS at first and I was a bit skeptical. But I decided to take the leap of faith and oh boy was I positively surprised. Everything was done for me and the team even helped me customize the website. I've created dozens of WordPress website in the past but none matched Ghost CMS in terms of performance, ease of use and design. Thank you!!

    Ayoub O. · ★★★★★ · May 2024 · Google review

    I had been hosting my website on blogger and had been wanting to migrate to a fast, modern and mobile friendly platform for a while. Jérémie managed to convince me to make the move and I’m very happy he did. The result is stunning, SEO friendly and easy to maintain. And on top of that the ongoing hosting fees are very reasonable (actually cheaper than on Ghost Pro).
