Bucks Composites is a small business specialising in selling materials for building fibreglass and carbon fibre components for model aeroplanes, model boats, and other items. The site is mainly an online shop, but also has galleries of photos of completed projects, and several illustrated "How to do" articles to show how the products can be used.

The Cycling Embassy campaigns to publicise bicycle friendly systems that work in other countries, working with other like minded organisations to make our streets safer for all. Run entirely by volunteers, it aims to appeal to anyone who uses a cycle for transport, even if they do not regard themselves a "cyclists". The website has many functional features, including a Forum, a Wiki area for users to create and edit pages, and comprehensive document and page classification systems. This site started life using Drupal 6, then was upgraded to use Drupal 7 in January 2012.

Exercise Click provides hundreds of easy-to-follow videos of injury rehabilitation exercises.

Fonant built the Drupal site to provide the required functionality for the project. In particular the site required the ability for certain users (medical practitioners) to be able to create and control user accounts for their own patients.

The site also uses online payments and a credits system, so both patients and practitioners are able to buy access to training videos in a flexible manner.

The long-standing Skills Workshop website was proving to be very time-consuming for the owner, Maggie Harnew, to keep updated. New contributors continued to send in new teaching resources, but the time taken to add resources to the site meant that a back-log was building up. Luckily, Maggie won the LSIS Star Award 2009 in the Skills for Life category, and the prize money funded conversion of the site into a Drupal content-managed site. This has enabled Maggie to spend more time concentrating on editing submitted resources, and less time having to maintain the web pages themselves.
