Website Design & Development

Dove House Hospice

The brief

We were approached by Dove House Hospice to modernise their digital appearance to reflect their new brand image through the use of bold colours taken from their existing brand guidelines. The new site had to shine a spotlight on the shops and special events, as these are a huge way to help raise money for the hospice. It was important that the new website gave Dove House the ability to easily control the content and site structure, which is something the old website was lacking.

What we did

We delivered a bright & bold website for this truly colourful hospice.

Sleek, logicial & successful

We delivered a brand-new sleek website on the latest version of Kentico that allows transactions to be made to help raise funds, as well as successfully highlighting the shops and upcoming events. We incorporated two bespoke aspects to the site; integrations with Raisers Edge, which now allows the flow of data directly to their customer relationship system, and a logic driven referral form which allows medical professionals, families and patients to refer people for care and be directed to the relevant service.

An eye for detail

The team at Dove House Hospice are award winning, so it was important that this was shown throughout the design of the new website. With this in mind, our designers got their heads together and introduced the bolder brand colours and new imagery to really freshen up the site. It was important to use the colours correctly, without it looking too much like a patch work quilt! The curves you see are inspired by the Dove House Hospice logo and help aid consistency and a unique design flare throughout the site.
