Bristol Charities are one of the longest-established charities in Bristol, dating back to the middle ages. They support many different needs, in particular they assist individuals with purchase of items they need for their accommodation that they couldn't otherwise afford, and also they provide assisted living spaces in a number of buildings in Bristol.
Local charity embraces high-tech solutions
Since 1935 Bristol Charities’ mission has been to enhance the quality of life of older people living in our communities. Bristol Charities provide vital services in the area including providing accommodation for older people, offering day care services and delivering a grants programme.
Bristol Charities needed a new website that would bring their web presence up-to-date and engage service users, stakeholders and the local community online. It was especially important that the range of charity services should be made obvious at first glance.
Highlighting community engagement
- To reflect the charity’s mission statement, our design palette consisted of calm colours to communicate the charity's caring nature
- The new website was built using this colour palette to convey the quality of the services offered
- Engaging visuals and content were used to highlight recent charity events and developments
- A simple and logical user journey provided a more coherent user-experience
User-friendly website paves the way for more donations
The charity can now showcase its work with a site that looks modern and appealing.
Clear, calming and attractive, the new site offers an insight into the charity’s community work.
New features being added to the website including an intranet will provide a information-rich hub for staff, stakeholders and clients.
