Calling All Accidental Developers

PHP Websites & Digital Confidence
Friday 23 October 2026 | 9.30am | Online
Do you look after a website, even though you’re not really a developer?
Perhaps you built your own business website, inherited responsibility for one or manage websites as part of your work.
Recent discussions about PHP have raised questions for website owners and the people supporting them.
Suffolk Developers, working alongside Empower Us CIC, is bringing people together for a friendly, practical conversation.
Our aim is to help people understand what’s happening, what it might mean for their websites and where they can find reliable information.
Who is this for?
This session is particularly relevant to:
- Suffolk and East of England business owners who manage their own websites.
- Freelancers, designers and marketers who maintain websites for clients.
- People who have inherited responsibility for a website.
- Web developers and technical specialists who would like to share their expertise.
You don’t need to understand PHP to attend.
What will we discuss?
We’ll explore the current PHP concerns, explain the relevant technical issues in accessible language and help participants identify sensible next steps.
We’ll also talk about the wider challenge of maintaining secure, reliable websites and building better digital foundations.
This is a community knowledge-sharing session, not a sales presentation or an opportunity to create unnecessary alarm.
