About
WordPress co-founder, Matt Mullenweg, is on a mission to “democratise publishing”.
For small businesses, WordPress gives you control of your website. It allows you to market your business online and puts you on a level playing field with even the biggest companies. For bloggers, it’s a creative outlet to express expertise and opinions.
At Callia Web, we love how WordPress enables almost anyone to have a voice on the web. This is why our name means “beautiful voice”.
Our mission is to build a website just for you, so that you too will have your own voice online.

Jo Waltham
Web Developer
After a long career in IT Support, Jo left to fulfil a lifelong desire to start her own business. The first business was an e-commerce store and Jo embraced the supportive micro business community, helping others with their websites and other technical issues. Jo sold the store in 2011 to focus on designing and developing websites for small businesses and bloggers. Specialising in the WordPress content management system and the Genesis Framework, Jo was delighted when in 2015 Callia Web became a StudioPress Recommended Genesis Developer.
Jo is an active member of the WordPress community, attending many WordCamps each year, speaking at WordCamp London in 2015 about “Going Freelance” and being on the organising team of WordCamp London 2016.
Jo works from the Marlborough office.

Tesher Fitzpatrick
UX/UI Designer
Tesher began hand-coding websites in the 1990’s before studying animation at St Martins and landing her first job in digital, working in software design for a mobile phone start up.
Several years at a large London based e-commerce site awakened a keen desire to learn more about how to put user experience at the centre of any design process.
Tesher brings both technical and creative skills to create design solutions for clients' website and marketing needs.
I am so pleased I contacted Callia Web as I was looking for some help to design a website for my nutrition business. I had seen a couple of their beautifully designed websites online and was interested to see if they would be able to create something for me as well. I chose the Quick launch Package as I wanted a website that would look professional but could be built fairly quickly, all at a reasonable price and, although I knew roughly the look and feel I wanted, I needed the technical help to put it all together. Jo at Callia Web outlined the process for me with a clear proposal so that I knew exactly the costs and time commitments involved. We had a planning session about a month before we started on the build and she was very clear about I needed to prepare in that time to allow maximum use of the time we had together.
The build afternoons were split into four 2.5 hour online sessions and Jo was great at allowing me time to ponder over the fine detail, for example, which photo to use whilst, at the same time, giving the sessions direction and making sure that all points were covered. She was very patient and coached me through many of the technical aspects of the website build, showing me how to edit pages, photos and blog posts, something that was very important to me as I wanted to be able to manage my website myself on a day-to-day basis. I am delighted with the end result and feel that the vision I had in my mind has come to life on the screen. I would definitely recommend Callia Web and would not hesitate to use them again in the future.
