This week is Dementia Action Week. To show our support, we have a very special showcase today. I created a promotional poster, tickets and placecards for a very special group close to my heart.

The ‘Forget-me-Not for dementia loss’ is a private Facebook group set up to offer support and advice to those who have lost loved ones to dementia. The group, led by the wonderful Julie Child and her sidekick Tracey Farish, also raise funds for dementia charities by organising fundraising events and raffles.

It's a safe space for everyone to talk, share memories and support one another. It's not all sadness; in fact, it's actually a really upbeat and funny group, but the people in the group are always there when you need them. They currently have over 1000 members.

I first heard about the group via a friend who had also experienced loss from dementia. It was just before I lost my mum. Mum had battled Alzheimer’s for about 9 years and then sadly lost a very short fight to cancer in 2021. The group offered me comfort during those dark days (I was sleeping at the hospice when I joined), and that support is still there whenever I need it.

The group needed help with some promotional material for a charity ball, and so I offered my services to support them. We will also be building them a little website soon for free (come on Julie and Tracey!) so they can continue the good work they do beyond Facebook. If there is anyone who needs any support after dementia loss, then please do look up this private Facebook group - 'Forget Me Not - For Dementia Loss' (I will add the link in the comments)

On a slightly different note - isn’t it nice to see an event poster that ISN’T created by Chat GPT!!😉

Friday! Excited to feature this new website launch for Legacy Therapy today!

Louise approached us to create a more professional online presence for her therapy practice. While she already had a basic DIY website, it wasn’t really communicating how she works, what therapy involves or helping visitors feel a genuine connection with her.

As well as creating a more cohesive website design that fits with her existing logo, a big part of this project was guiding Louise through the content, structure and overall journey of the website. We worked closely with her to shape what information should be included, how it should flow and what potential clients may need to see or understand before reaching out.

We also discussed introducing new imagery of her therapy space and encouraged her to record a short video introduction to help visitors feel more comfortable and connected before taking that first step. We're hoping she shares the outtakes at some point on her socials 😆

The new website includes testimonials and a helpful FAQ section, all designed to create a calmer, clearer and more reassuring experience for the viewer.

The result is a website that not only looks professional but genuinely supports the client journey as well.

Our web design process is about far more than just how a website looks. We help businesses consider the full customer journey, creating websites that not only look professional but also genuinely connect with the viewer.

Not sure if your website is doing your business justice anymore? Get in touch, we’d love to chat and see how we can help.

Sometimes your branding doesn’t need a full overhaul, just a few considered changes to help it work harder. This week’s Friday Showcase features updated business cards and a subtle logo refinement for Brighter Future Therapy Practice

The original logo used light pink and green with very similar tonal values, which made the green difficult to distinguish and caused both colours to compete for attention. We advised against using the light pink as a background for the logo. To support the brand further, we introduced a circular graphic as a flexible secondary asset using the lighter colours. We also updated the ‘therapy practice’ text to a clean sans-serif font and replaced black with a dark blue from the existing palette. This creates a softer, more cohesive look, while making the secondary line easier to read and better balanced beneath the main name.

Using the new logo and circular asset, we created new, rounded corner business cards with a lovely soft laminated feel.

The result is a more confident, professional brand identity. Supported by a full set of colour specifications (not just hex values) to ensure consistency across both print and digital.

If your business logo could do with a refresh, or you’d value a second opinion, send us a DM and let's arrange a chat.

Have a great bank holiday weekend everyone!

Friday Showcase time is here again!
A few weeks ago, we launched a new branding and website for a new business - Talking 12. Talking 12 delivers engaging, 60-minute sessions, live and in person, to whole-workforce audiences across the UK. Their mission: to break down barriers, challenge myths, and create confident, informed conversations around workplace health and wellbeing. This first phase starts with menopause support in the workplace, following changes to the Employment Rights Act last year. We have been working closely with Denise over the past couple of months to help her vision come to life.

This included creating her brand identity, brand material and website for this all-important initiative. It was nice to attend the launch at the Roslin Hotel in Southend and see all the materials working together. We created and organised the print for notepads, pens, business cards, stickers and banners. This is a great example of how consistent design that follows your branding can really make the brand stand out, be seen and recognised.

We have also designed and built a new website, which features a menopause symptom checker. This will be used at events and sessions to engage the audience and allow follow-ups with the panel of experts on the team.

We are really proud to be part of such an exciting and new venture like this, which will hopefully help change the lives of so many in the workplace.

Not sure how to turn your logo into a brand? Pop us a message and let's chat.

You’ll need sound on for this one at the end.
Our daily routine. Every. single. day! It got so bad in the winter we fitted a self closing mechanism as she would open it, walk around, let the cold in and leave. 🙈
Still, helps us get up occasionally from the desk and get exercise.

New glossy flyers for 🤘🏻
We recently recreated the Wrath logo in vector format so artwork could be created on all materials in the future. We then created these A5 glossy flyers which were delivered in time for their taster session during the Bank holiday Shakedown event 🏍️
Check out for their tasty still and sparkling flavoured waters, full of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes. A healthy alternative to the sugary energy drinks.

Time to bring this one back!
Happy Easter, and a special shout-out to all the small businesses and self-employed out there torn between wanting time off and realising you don't get paid for these bank holidays. 😆
