The project will create a public-facing website (front end), the primary purpose of which is to deliver a registration form for people affected by asthma to register for participation in research studies. This site will be hosted on a new Drupal platform separately from the existing AUKCAR site, and will be prominently linked from the REACH section of AUKCAR. It will have a similar look and feel to the AUKCAR site.

In addition to the registration form, the following supporting features are required in the front end:

• A form for researchers to start an application for access to registration data.
• Information such as contact details; what to expect once registered; how to remove yourself if you change your mind; details of data privacy/security; etc.
• CMS features to allow REACH admins to edit the supporting information as required.

The front end should not store registration data directly (i.e. in the Drupal database), and instead should interface with the back end database in a secure manner.

The project will also deliver a separate secure web application (back end) to manage the registration data. This will provide authorised REACH staff with the means to maintain the data.

The back end will be secured with EASE and available to specified users only. Access will therefore be limited to users with EASE accounts.
