Thanks so much Michäel and Jim and the others who have offered help off
list.
We will be trying out the different suggestions and will report back
when we have conclusions.
Best wishes,
John

Hi,
Indeed, Lizmap is a complete server side software wich dynamically
create maps based on projects, and also acts as a proxy between the
client (browser or another GIS) and QGIS Server. You have advanced
features, such as edition, protection of projects with groups and users,
automatic tile caching, etc.
If you only need to publish one or 2 maps but cannot install anything on
the server ( which means you cannot have QGIS Server or Lizmap installed
server side), you could instead use the plugin Qgis2Web , which aims to
create a web map and publish it without the need of a server (it exports
vectors and raster as files and uses Openlayers or Leaflet as a map viewer).

I've had luck using the QGIS server[1] on the back and
QGIS-Web-Client[2], MapBender[3], and generic OpenLayers[4] on the front
end.
QGIS server uses the qgs project files and the same rendering engine as
QGIS, so things will look as awesome as they do in QGIS.
I'm not sure if it's proper for this list, but if you decide to look for
someone to set the server and web client up on contract, feel free to
contact me directly.
