Skirrid Systems was formed in 2013 as the trading name for Simon Large, an embedded systems engineer and web designer who has been living and working in South East Wales since 1993, and in England for ten years prior to that.
Having spent much of his spare time designing and maintaining websites and IT services for his church and other local organisations, it became clear that there was more work to be done here than could ever be achieved in spare time alone. So in 2017 Simon followed a vocational call to provide web design and IT support services to a broader range of churches and small Christian charities, making this the new focus of activity for Skirrid Systems.
Church Site was created in 2020 in response to the growing need among UK churches to be able to set up a simple website at minimal cost, but with the necessary technical support to get them started.
Simon lives in Abergavenny and worships in St Edmund’s Church, Crickhowell. His wife, Mairwen, was ordained Deacon in 2023 and is serving her curacy in the St Catwg Ministry Area.
