East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust - website redesign

Easy to navigate, ESNEFT needed a website with the broadest target market imaginable; everybody

The East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT) was formed on 1 July 2018, merging the Colchester and Ipswich hospitals. On the same day, we proudly launched their new website.

The most important part of this project was the initial research and the interactive wireframe it resulted in. Of course, it had to look great, but nothing was more important than usability. Our project team went as far as conducting focus groups to ensure that no stone was left unturned when it came to ease of use. This included ensuring the website was fully compliant with ‘Level A’ of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

Following the strict NHS brand guidelines, we were able to produce a website that suited everyone.
