> Manufacturers and logistics firms on the estates around Lowmoor Road are a big part of Kirkby-in-Ashfield today. dijitul, just up the road in Mansfield, supports them remotely with PCs, email, networks and websites, and on-site work is quoted in advance. Plans run from £25 a month + VAT; ad-hoc help is £45 an hour + VAT.

Kirkby-in-Ashfield is the administrative centre of the Ashfield district: Ashfield District Council has its offices on Urban Road in the town. Like its neighbours Sutton and Mansfield, Kirkby grew on coal mining, and the closure of the pits in the late twentieth century left it needing new employers. Much of that new activity has come from manufacturing, logistics and small businesses on the industrial estates around Lowmoor Road and the edges of the town.

The Robin Hood Line put Kirkby back on the rail network in the 1990s, giving direct trains to Nottingham and Mansfield, and Junction 27 of the M1 is a short drive away. Sherwood Business Park at Annesley, near that junction, houses offices, warehouses and distribution operations, and many Kirkby residents and suppliers work there or nearby. The town centre is mainly local shops, takeaways, salons and services, and the surrounding estates are home to plenty of trades and sole traders.

For a town of this size the IT issues are practical rather than exotic. Small manufacturers and engineering firms need office PCs, printers and networks that keep working, regular backups, and someone to sort Windows updates without breaking older software. Distribution and logistics businesses near the M1 need decent Wi-Fi in warehouse areas, label printers and Microsoft 365 for office staff. Tradespeople and local shops mainly want a website that loads on a phone, a working contact form, a professional email address on their own domain rather than a free account, and to show up correctly on Google Maps.

We also see a lot of businesses here whose website was built by a friend or a previous agency that has since disappeared, leaving no logins and an outdated WordPress install. Recovering access, taking a backup and getting it updated safely is often the first job.

Kirkby is around ten minutes from our office in Mansfield, so on-site work is easy to arrange when it is needed. Most support is remote, and every visit is quoted upfront.
