Are you happy with your website, but frustrated by the amount of time and manpower it takes to keep your site the way you want it?
Baffled about the modernisation options available?
Many sites are designed by experts but are handed over to customers who have little or no knowledge or experience of maintaining and developing the presence they had planned for. Often, businesses commission attractive and modern websites but have not been thoroughly prepared by their chosen designers for the potential resources required to maintain the site, let alone look to effective promotion or future development.
SCore Web Solutions provides THE design and management service for your site. From the earliest days of the site's inception, through to its promotion and long-term growth, SCoreWeb prides itself on providing design, functionality and publicity that precisely meets your needs.

April 2004
Due to critical illness SCore Web Solutions, the trading name of Sarah Core, has had to suspend its services until further notice. Existing customers will be kept fully informed of any developments as and when they occur. Existing support agreements shall be honoured. We shall be contacting individual clients to arrange for alternative support arrangments that meet their needs. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused and hope that this will not adversly affect the operation of any of our clients' businesses.
February 2005
SCore Web Solutions regrets that due to the long term nature of the injuries Sarah Core has sustained, its services must remain suspended until further notice.
September 2005
Some visitors to this site may recently have seen appearances in the UK both on national television and in a number of national newspapers by Sarah Core on behalf of the Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead, and the Blond McIndoe Centre in recognitioin of the innovative and pioneenirng treatment she received whilst in Intensive Care and in High Dependency Care. The publicity focused on the specific use of cultured cells, a technique whereby a small biopsy of skin is taken from the patient and grown on in laboratory conditions, suspended in liquid and sprayed onto a new skin graft. Sarah would like to acknowledge that whilst this treatment was hugely significant in her long term recovery and to many patients who will follow her, she owes her life to the hard work and support of all those who work at restoring life in the Burns Unit at East Grinstead.
November 2005
SCore Web Solutions would like to thank colleagues and associates for their continued support during Sarah Core's prolonged rehabilitation. Sarah has recently undergone a further series of skin grafts at the Queen Victoria Hosptital, East Grinstead, in the hope of achieving complete healing, allowing Sarah to reclaim a normal working and private life. As all those who know Sarah and her condition have now come to expect, this grafting was successful to a degree but her recovery from surgery was very encouraging. She has now begun to walk without the use of her walking stick and her strength and balance has improved so that her main focus can be developing the stamina required to occupy a relatively normal place in the community.
December 2005
Sarah has returned to the care of the Mount Vernon Hospital Rainsford Mowlem Burns Unit in Northwood, London, to where she was originally transferred from A&E. Here her recovery from her most recent surgery has been allowed to progress, with her donor site wounds healing well. Her next course of treatment will be to enter into compression bandaging in an attempt to restore sufficient circulation to her lower legs to allow them to heal. This treatment will begin early in 2006.
August 2006
This is a delayed entry on Sarah's recovery. Unfortunately the compression bandaging that was applied in January was thwarted by multipal and rampant infections, namely MRSA (for the fifth time), Haemolytic Streptococcus and Pseudomonus. These caused her remaining wounds to break down yet again. Not only that but she found herself in increasingly poor general health. Suffering with a permanent Vitamin B12 deficiency as a consequence of the original trauma to her body, she also developed extreme anaemia. All of this together with chronic, severe and seemingly unmanageable pain she was readmitted to Mount Vernon Hospital for intravenous antibiotics, blood and bed rest. There she remained until the end of May, during which time she also underwent further surgery and physiotherapy to correct what turned out to be serious errors in her walking. The weakness she experienced primarily through her anaemia was exacerbated by the rigours of surgery and post-operative recovery. Her reliance on a walking stick returned as she experienced a high degree of weakness and fragility.
November 2006
The last six months has been a successful period in Sarah's recovery. Since her discharge from Mount Vernon Hospital her remaining wounds have healed significantly thanks in no small part to the team of community nurses and Tissue Viability Nurses that have been assembled to concentrate on Sarah's condition. Regrettably the Dawson Ward where Sarah spent her last period as an inpatient at Mount Vernon Hospital has been re-located. This in itself is not a disaster but has inevitably meant the breakup of a team whose combined experience could never be replicated. Nevertheless Sarah is undergoing compression bandaging for the second time and this is proving effective. Moreover the once thought permanent damage to the circulation in her lower legs has been disproven, which bodes well for her future life.
Her immediate concern is the approach to the next stage of healing, not to mention her need for further physiotherapy - the next six to eight months will be crucial. The remaining wounds occupy approximately 40% of her lower legs and there remain some wounds elsewhere. The hard work and perseverance of the team in the community has paid off and Sarah is full of admiration for the care and compassion of those who work in this stretched branch of healthcare.
Sarah would like to acknowledge the huge assistance of the people involved in her recovery:
The doctors, nurses and support staff of the Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead
