Website design for Spirit of the Dog by HE Web Design

Spirit of the Dog

Spirit of the Dog are a rehabilitation and rehoming charity, helping dogs since 2004. Run by a group of dog lover volunteers, they aim to stop the needless destruction of dogs with ‘behavioural issues’. They believe that with the right home, the right owner and the right training, any dog can be a balanced, happy and valuable part of a family.

The previous Spirit of the Dog website wasn’t working for them as a charity. The backend of the website was difficult for the volunteers to use, the navigation was tricky, and most importantly the website wasn’t responsive, so it was difficult to use for mobile users. We know that social media is an invaluable part of the charity’s awareness campaign, so it was imperative that the website is mobile friendly. We volunteered to take on the task of redesigning and rebuilding the whole website, creating a charity website design with the goal to make it more user friendly, easier to navigate, and easier to support the charity through.

Results

We created the charity website design from scratch to make a user friendly site that looks great and is enjoyable to use. Our first priority was to ensure the website is mobile friendly, so that it is accessible and user friendly on every device. We worked with the charity’s brand guidelines to incorporate brand colours throughout the design, ensuring that it is recognisable to visitors. The site looks bright, colourful and inviting, and the straightforward navigation makes it intuitive to find what you’re looking for.

The website includes information areas about the dogs that are ready for adoption, as well as easy links for donating and supporting the charity. There’s an events and news page to keep visitors up to date with the charity’s story, as well as an online store to support Spirit of the Dog through sales. We built the website with WordPress, which allows the client to observe visitor analytics, so they can feed this information back into offering the information that their supporters are looking for.
