At 21st Webb, we’re proud to be helping transform the way music education is delivered in North Wales through Opus – our bespoke digital management system, built specifically for music co-operatives and not-for-profit organisations.
Now successfully adopted by Denbighshire and Wrexham Music Co-operatives, and with the newly formed Conwy Music Co-operative also joining the Opus community, the system is fast becoming a trusted platform for managing music services across the region.
What is Opus?
Opus is a web-based platform designed to streamline the daily operations of music co-operatives. From scheduling and lesson tracking to invoicing and record keeping, Opus brings together all the essential tools needed to run an efficient, transparent and fully bilingual service.
Developed in close partnership with local music co-operatives, Opus reflects the unique needs of these organisations, allowing parents, schools, tutors and administrators to collaborate seamlessly.
Why Music Co-operatives Choose Opus
✔️ Purpose-Built for Music Services – Unlike generic management software, Opus was created from the ground up for music education.
✔️ Centralised Data Store – All lesson schedules, tutor hours, reports, and billing are managed in one centralised system.
✔️ Tutor-Friendly Interface – Tutors can easily manage their timetables, log hours, submit pupil progress reports and access resources with just a few clicks.
✔️ Real-Time Reporting – Administrators gain a complete overview of service delivery, helping them make data-informed decisions.
✔️ Scalable for Growth – As seen with the recent onboarding of Conwy Music Co-operative, Opus scales effortlessly with new teams and regions.
Supporting the Not-for-Profit Sector
Opus is more than just software — it’s a digital solution tailored to the challenges of not-for-profit music services. With increasing pressures on funding and accountability, organisations need smart systems that save time, reduce admin, and offer transparent reporting. Opus delivers all of this, and more.
Join the Opus Network
We’re excited to see how Opus will grow with the rollout in another county, and we welcome other co-operatives and organisations who want to modernise their management approach.
If you’re part of a music service, education body or non-profit organisation looking to streamline your operations, get in touch with us today to discover what 21st Webb can do for you.

When Llandyrnog Shop reopened its doors as a revitalised community hub, it represented far more than the return of a village store. It signified resilience, collaboration, and local ambition.
Behind the scenes, sustainable growth required more than goodwill — it required secure, scalable, and professional digital infrastructure.
That’s where 21st Webb, through our official Microsoft partnership, stepped in.
Supporting a Thriving Community Initiative
Community-owned enterprises operate differently from traditional retail businesses. They depend on:
• Volunteer coordination
• Transparent financial management
• Secure document sharing
• Professional email communication
• Cloud-based collaboration
As Llandyrnog Shop’s community initiative gained momentum following its reopening, the need for structured digital systems became essential.
Our solution was the deployment of scalable Microsoft 365 licensing tailored to their operational model.
Why Microsoft 365 Was the Right Fit
Microsoft 365 provides a secure, cloud-first productivity ecosystem designed for modern organisations. For Llandyrnog Shop, this delivered:
✔ Professional email accounts with custom domain branding
✔ Cloud-based document storage via OneDrive and SharePoint
✔ Secure file sharing between volunteers and committee members
✔ Microsoft Teams for structured internal communication
✔ Built-in security, compliance and data protection controls
Rather than relying on fragmented tools, the shop now operates within a unified productivity environment.
Growing with Demand
As the shop’s role expanded beyond retail — hosting community activity, events, and coordination efforts — so too did its licensing requirements.
One of the key advantages of procuring Microsoft 365 through 21st Webb is flexibility.
We provide:
• A full range of Microsoft 365 Business licenses
• Scalable seat management as organisations grow
• Centralised billing
• Migration assistance and ongoing management
When Llandyrnog Shop required additional user accounts and expanded collaboration tools, scaling was seamless.
A Managed Partnership — Not Just a License
Purchasing licenses directly online can leave organisations managing configuration, security policies, and user administration alone.
Through our Microsoft partnership, we deliver:
• Initial tenant setup and configuration
• Ongoing license management
• User onboarding and support
• Strategic advice as digital needs evolve
For community-led initiatives, this level of guidance ensures technology enhances operations rather than becoming a burden.
Digital Infrastructure for Modern Community Hubs
The reopening of Llandyrnog Village Store marked a new chapter for the local community. Its success depends on organisation, communication and accountability — all strengthened by professional digital systems.
By integrating Microsoft 365 into its operations, Llandyrnog Shop benefits from:
• Improved internal collaboration
• Stronger data protection compliance
• Reduced administrative friction
• Scalable systems aligned with growth
As community hubs increasingly rely on digital tools, structured cloud productivity platforms are no longer optional — they are foundational.
Access Microsoft 365 Through 21st Webb
Whether you are a community organisation, SME, or growing enterprise, our Microsoft partnership allows you to procure and manage Microsoft 365 licenses efficiently and securely.
We offer a full range of Microsoft 365 Business packages, available to order directly through our website, with optional onboarding and management support.
Let 21st Webb help you modernise your organisation’s productivity infrastructure — and grow with confidence.

In the rolling hills of North Wales, where natural beauty meets peaceful seclusion, reliable internet connectivity isn’t always guaranteed. For rural hospitality providers, this presents a significant operational challenge.
That’s why Famau Cabins partnered with 21st Webb to deliver robust, high-speed mobile broadband across their three remote luxury cabins.
The result? Seamless 4G and 5G connectivity, powered by our Unlimited Data SIM packages — ensuring guests stay connected while enjoying an off-grid escape.
The Connectivity Challenge in Rural North Wales
Famau Cabins is located in a stunning but remote hillside setting. Traditional fixed-line broadband options were either unavailable or unable to provide the bandwidth required to meet modern guest expectations.
For a premium accommodation provider, connectivity is not optional. Guests expect:
• Fast WiFi for streaming and remote working
• Stable connections for multiple simultaneous devices
• Reliable uptime regardless of weather or peak usage
• Secure networks protecting guest data
Delivering this in a rural environment requires specialist infrastructure — not just a basic router.
Our Solution: Unlimited Data SIM Broadband
Instead of relying on outdated copper infrastructure, we deployed high-performance 4G/5G mobile broadband solutions using our Unlimited Data SIM packages.
Key benefits include:
✔ Truly Unlimited Data Allowances
✔ Multi-Network Provider Options
✔ 4G & 5G Compatibility
✔ Static IP Options Available
✔ Rapid Deployment Without Civil Engineering
By leveraging multiple UK mobile networks, we selected the strongest signal coverage for the site, ensuring optimal speed and reliability across all three cabins.
Full Infrastructure Support — Not Just a SIM Card
Our service didn’t stop at supplying data SIMs.
For Famau Cabins, we:
• Installed high-gain external antennas for enhanced signal reception
• Configured commercial-grade 4G/5G routers
• Designed and segmented the internal WiFi network for guest isolation
• Provided ongoing remote monitoring and support
• Maintain the physical network infrastructure on-site
This end-to-end approach ensures consistent performance and eliminates the risk of unmanaged downtime.
Static IP Options for Business-Grade Control
For hospitality businesses requiring remote access, CCTV connectivity, booking integrations or secure back-office systems, our Static IP SIM packages offer additional control and flexibility.
Static IP connectivity enables:
• Secure remote system access
• Improved compatibility with booking platforms
• Enhanced firewall management
• Business continuity solutions
For rural enterprises, this level of network stability and control is transformative.
Supporting Digital Infrastructure for Growing Businesses
In addition to mobile broadband, we also provide web hosting services for Famau Cabins — ensuring their online booking platform performs as reliably as their on-site WiFi.
By combining hosting, connectivity and physical network management under one provider, Famau Cabins benefits from:
• Unified infrastructure strategy
• Scalable connectivity as demand grows
• Reduced operational complexity
This integrated approach allows them to focus on delivering exceptional guest experiences while we manage the technology behind the scenes.
Connecting Rural Wales Without Compromise
Mobile broadband is no longer a backup solution — in many cases, it is the superior primary connection method, particularly in remote regions.
Our SIM Only packages are ideal for:
• Rural businesses
• Holiday parks and cabins
• Construction sites
• Temporary offices
• Remote workers
• Events and pop-up venues
With flexible network choices and optional static IP configurations, 21st Webb delivers connectivity solutions engineered for reliability and scalability.
Explore Our SIM Only Packages
If your business operates beyond the reach of traditional fibre infrastructure, our Unlimited Data SIM packages could be the ideal solution.
Choose from a range of UK mobile network providers, with flexible options to suit commercial and high-demand environments.
Let 21st Webb design a connectivity solution that works wherever your business operates.

At 21st Webb, we believe digital infrastructure should be as strong and dependable as the organisations it supports. That’s why we’re proud to provide high-performance web hosting services to the fantastic initiative that is Brass Bands Wales.
Brass Bands Wales plays a vital role in preserving, promoting and celebrating brass band culture across Wales. With events, competitions, resources and community engagement at its core, the organisation requires a web platform that is always available, fast-loading, and capable of handling traffic spikes during major announcements and event registrations.
That’s where 21st Webb comes in.
Why Brass Bands Wales Needs Robust Web Hosting
For a national music initiative, a website is more than just an online presence. It functions as:
• An information hub for member bands
• A registration portal for competitions and events
• A communication channel for news and updates
• A public-facing showcase of Welsh brass band excellence
Any downtime, latency, or security vulnerability would directly impact users, organisers and participants.
Our web hosting service ensures:
• High uptime reliability
• Optimised loading speeds across devices
• Secure infrastructure with proactive monitoring
• Scalable resources during peak activity periods
Performance That Matches Their Passion
Brass Bands Wales regularly publishes updates, event information and downloadable resources. This requires a hosting environment configured for performance and stability.
Our hosting packages deliver:
✔ SSD-powered storage for rapid data access
✔ Secure UK-based infrastructure
✔ Advanced firewall protection and malware monitoring
✔ Daily backup solutions
✔ cPanel management for intuitive administration
By combining technical robustness with user-friendly management tools, we ensure that their team can focus on supporting music communities — not worrying about server issues.
Scalable Hosting for Growing Initiatives
As Brass Bands Wales continues to expand its reach, its digital demands grow too. Whether it’s increased traffic during national competitions or new content sections being added, our hosting architecture scales efficiently.
For organisations with more demanding requirements, we also offer premium hosting packages that provide enhanced performance resources and priority infrastructure allocation — ideal for high-traffic or content-heavy platforms.
Supporting Welsh Organisations with Digital Excellence
At 21st Webb, we’re proud to support initiatives that strengthen Welsh communities. Hosting Brass Bands Wales is about more than servers and bandwidth — it’s about enabling culture, heritage and collaboration to thrive online.
Reliable hosting forms the backbone of digital transformation. For charities, not-for-profits, and national organisations, investing in the right hosting partner ensures credibility, trust, and uninterrupted service delivery.

You may recall our work on a new website for Makeup Artist Victoria Northbrooke. Following the success of their magazine launch, we have been delighted to work on a whole new website solely for the Makeup Manifesto magazine.
This website has been built upon a lot of lessons learnt during the evolution of the original Victoria Northbrooke website, and provides a clean consistent platform for the magazine to be sold, alongside related courses and other digital products.
Whilst integration of an e-commerce platform, Zapier and FloDesk are not new concepts for this site, the greatest challenge we are building around is scale. The popularity of this content required a platform which could deliver to an ever-growing user base, whilst maintaining overall performance of the website.
Here comes the challenge of integrating a media rich hosting service with WooCommerce. Despite initial concerns about incompatibility between the various platforms in use, rethinking of the checkout experience is what allowed the multiple elements of this site to come together; so guess you could say this wasn’t as much of a challenge as first thought.
Not every project we take on has to be a technical feat, but what we always challenge ourselves to do is build a site that meets every requirement. If you’re looking for a new website built, or maybe have one in need of an overhaul – be sure to get in touch.
