About us
First and foremost we are a full-service digital agency that's core value is based upon openness, honesty, and flexibility.
We are not tied to a single technology and thrive on digital problem solving and utilise the best of open source technology whenever we can.
Affinity was born in 2004 and has always been a deeply technical organisation with a passion for creating innovative digital solutions.
With our roots in Cornwall, over the years we’ve not only expanded our reach across the UK but grown our services most notably in hosting and 24/7/365 support. Motivated by a passion for efficient, effective and secure code we’ve never stopped learning…
Whether in the public or private sector, our people and our relationships are our strength. The project is just the beginning; establishing and nurturing long-term, supportive relationships through the quality of our work and our interactions is what inspires us.
Driving learning, growth and adaptability is culturally ingrained in Affinity’s DNA. Our colleagues are privileged to have worked with very high profile clients on mission critical complex projects that have challenged but also catapulted their experience and knowledge to levels rarely seen in a company of our size.
Our passion for the project is superseded only by the wellbeing of the people involved in it. We recognise software development is a challenging area so we prioritise openness, honesty and transparency. This approach enables true collaboration with our clients and fosters a shared desire to succeed, empowered by our ability to make quick business decisions because the key stakeholders are active in the business day to day.
We have come a long way in the last 20 years and hope we have an opportunity to work with you and grow together over the next 20…
Our Values
Retaining our open, honest and transparent culture
Being kind and motivational to our colleagues and clients
Remembering it’s the people not the process that gets the job done
Empowering brilliant people to deliver brilliance
Our Purpose
To help our clients make a positive difference for their customers and colleagues through the clever and innovative use of open-source software.
The Affinity difference:
It’s not what we do that makes us special, it's the people and the way that we do it..
Blended teams
There are no walls between our teams. We take projects seamlessly through the whole delivery cycle and even when we move into support and maintenance there will still be familiar faces
Content is king
We never forget the most elegant and efficient code and design is useless if the content is not as well considered and put together.
Process driven but flexible
Affinity are ISO 90001 and 27001 accredited and have a well proven tried and tested approach to Process Methodology and security but understand that all projects are unique and there is no one size fits all solution. So we listen and adapt to our clients needs quickly.
Attitude
Making a real effort to keep our colleagues mentally healthy and happy is contagious… It creates a can-do attitude from all those invested in the project, and is why 100% of our clients have asked us to continue to support, maintain and continually improve the services we have designed for them.
PEOPLE SAY
-
“We have had a number of websites over previous years, none of which have given us as much flexibility with content management, improved navigation and customer experience as this one. I am very grateful for all of Affinity’s advice that has led us to the great position that we are in today. Please pass on my thanks to all of the team there. You can genuinely all be VERY proud of what you have achieved for us.”
Richard Benjamin
Lotus Cars Plc -
“I cannot tell you how grateful we are for all your effort and to have had your support, thank you so much. On a personal note, it is extremely consoling to know that you’re not alone when you get out of a trench to try to do something a bit special. So, thank you.”
Sir Tim Smit
Eden Project -
"Affinity was proud to be informed that it ranked first in a Government's Drupal Contract tender evaluation and that it was therefore awarded a high profile and nationally significant contract. “This is a tremendous result for Affinity and truly reflects the unparalleled level of skills and experience that we have attained in the open-source arena. The team worked really hard to win this bid and are still working with GDS further cementing our relationship with the client-side teams.”
Jonathan Duval
Affinity Digital -
“From initial concept discussions, through to the creation of a brief and timescales to in-depth design and realisation, the brochure team have liaised with us closely to ensure we understood processes, ideas and costings throughout the project. The web team offered a creative and professional service and throughout the process the team at Affinity have been very helpful in their support and in sharing their knowledge. We would recommend Affinity to provide a complete and professional package for creative, visual and online requirements.”
