The Runnymede Trust

I've been meaning to put this one up for a while.

http://www.runnymedetrust.org/

The Runnymede Trust are a UK based anti-racism / race relations charity - they've been around since the late 60's and do lots of research and lobbying and all kinds of good stuff.

They've been using CMSMS for about a year with mainly a single person doing the updating but a couple of months back we reskinned the site and let the whole office (about 20 users) loose on updating everything. Switching the templates was a breeze in CMSMS and so far everyone seems to be getting on with it really well.

There's a few customised tags in there including..

1. A much hacked about version of the Companies Directory which handles their Publications.
2. A 'recently updated' tag which pulls out the sections that have had child pages recently updated.
3. A simple tag to play different videos depending on a value passed to them.

all these bits of code are a bit too ugly and site specific to post (and anyway they're all versions of things in the this forum already I bet ) - but of course I'm happy to share them with anyway who wants to do anything similar.

Definitely one of my favourites from the work we've done recently.

Terrific looking site - easy to read/navigate, nice layout, nice colour scheme. There are a few validation errors you should check out.

Well done!
