The company

The company behind the two of us

Bedford Coding Ltd is the name on the contract and the invoice. It isn’t an agency. It’s the company Lewis and Matt work through, so that the work is done properly and somebody is accountable for it.

What it’s for

When you hire Lewis and Matt, your contract is with a registered UK limited company. That means written terms, proper invoices with a VAT number on them, accounts filed every year, and a business that is answerable for the work long after it’s delivered.

Bedford Coding was founded by Sophie Bedford in 2018 and has been trading independently ever since, with clients from a cycling club in West Yorkshire to an innovation hub in Ticino and a summit in Lausanne. We’re proud of it. It’s the reason two people can promise what a much larger firm would. Bedford is a surname, by the way, not the town. We’re nowhere near Bedfordshire.

The two of us

Lewis and Matt

The company is the paperwork. These are the people.

  • Lewis Clegg

    Lewis Clegg

    Designer · Halifax, West Yorkshire

    Lewis has designed brands, print and websites for over a decade, from identity work to publishing to platforms used by thousands of people a day. He came up through a schools publisher, designer to brand manager, where a page that isn’t clear at first glance doesn’t ship. That habit is still the whole method.

    He treats accessibility as a standard of the trade rather than an extra, which is why everything we make passes WCAG AA without a separate line on the quote. He lives and works in Halifax, for clients across the UK and Europe, and he designed this site.

    Matt Bedford

    Developer · Monza, near Milan

    Matt has spent ten years building for the web: WordPress sites and plugins, integrations between systems that were never meant to talk, Laravel applications, and the security work that keeps all of it standing. Before that he was a technical writer and then Digital Director of the Swiss e-commerce association, so he has sat on the client’s side of the table with a budget to defend.

    He lives in Monza, near Milan, and works for clients across the UK and Europe. He builds what Lewis designs, and when a site has been left broken or open by somebody else, he’s the one who reads the code and puts it right.

From Halifax to Lausanne

Clubs, builders, social enterprises, investors, event organisers and the agencies who bring Lewis and Matt in behind the scenes.

  • “Our old site cost us money every month for hosting nobody looked after, and it did nothing for us. Lewis and Matt built one that shows forty years of our work and costs nothing to host. They took out the tracking nobody was looking at, so we don’t even need a cookie notice. They were on our side from the start, and as clear about what we didn’t need as what we did.”

    Luke BrooksOwner, SKL Construction & Design Ltd
  • “My team used to type the same information into one system after another. Lewis and Matt gave us a single platform where a sign-up becomes a contact, a payment and a badge without anyone touching it. Every time we have had a new idea since, they have added it to what we have. We have never had to start again.”

    Carlo TerreniPresident, Dagorà, Lugano
  • “Lewis and Matt are consummate professionals; we have collaborated with them on various high-level projects. Their problem-solving skills and ability to produce precise, efficient code are the qualities we appreciate most, not to mention their proactive approach and rapid delivery.”
