Chest, Heart & Stroke Scotland
Introduction
Coronary heart disease is one of Scotland’s biggest killers; stroke is the main cause of disability in the community and chest illness is the biggest single reason people use the health service.
These are the major challenges facing Scottish charity Chest, Heart & Stroke Scotland.
Brief
When Chest, Heart & Stroke Scotland approached our agency partner Frame Creative in 2007, the brief was to deliver an online presence that reflected the charity’s aims and ambitions.
The site needed to provide detailed and accurate information, advice and support to patients and carers. It also needed to promote the valuable fundraising activities which provide essential income to the charity.
We were delighted to be involved from the initial design brief through to delivery of finished PHP and CSS templates and beyond to content migration, rollout and support.
Working alongside stakeholders from NHS Scotland and usability consultants User Vision, we designed an accessible, usable and memorable site for the client. We continue to work closely with the charity’s staff to ensure that the site delivers accurate, understandable and useful content to its users.
