Notion Migration in Durham
Moving Durham organisations' documentation and trackers into Notion, or out of it. Content arriving from elsewhere usually needs restructuring rather than importing — documents become pages easily, and the value only appears once the information inside them becomes databases with properties that can be filtered.
Why this comes up
The problem
Knowledge is spread across shared drives, wikis and documents, much of it duplicated and none of it findable by anyone who did not write it.
What you get
What we deliver
- Content audited first, since a large share is usually obsolete rather than worth moving
- Structured information identified and rebuilt as databases rather than pages
- Page hierarchy designed for finding things, not mirroring the old folder tree
- Permissions planned, as inheritance behaves differently from a file share
- Attachments and embedded files handled explicitly
- Export position understood, so leaving later is a known quantity

Working in Durham
North East
Durham's economy is dominated by its university and cathedral, so the commercial base is small and much of the local demand comes from spinouts and suppliers attached to the institutions rather than from independent industry.
Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones.

Notion Migration in Durham — common questions
- Should we move everything?
- No, and this is the main opportunity. Shared drives accumulate years of superseded material, and importing it wholesale gives you the same mess in a nicer interface. Auditing first typically removes a substantial proportion before anything is migrated.
- What should become a database?
- Anything you would want to filter, sort or report on — clients, projects, policies, assets, people. Content left as pages is readable and inert; the same information as database entries with properties becomes something the organisation can actually work with.
- How do permissions differ?
- They inherit down the page tree, which surprises people used to folder permissions. Sharing a parent page shares everything beneath it, and organisations regularly discover that sensitive content sits under a page shared more widely than intended. Designing the tree around access is worth doing upfront.
- Can we get our content out again?
- Yes, with some fidelity loss. Exports produce standard formats and databases become spreadsheets, but relations, rollups and layout do not survive intact. It is workable rather than seamless, and worth understanding before the organisation's knowledge lives there.
- Do you work with businesses across County Durham?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North East, including Durham and the surrounding County Durham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Durham businesses do you usually work with?
- Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Public Sector, Retail and Research.
- Do you cover the areas around Durham?
- Yes — we work throughout North East, including Newcastle, Sunderland, York. Durham is an urban area of roughly 70,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Durham region rather than the city boundary alone.
