Project Description

The Story

Family Tree Wirral aim to support carers and families by providing the knowledge they need to be able to cope better with caring for someone with a mental illness, particularly where symptoms are more complex.

They provide:

  • Counselling for carers
  • Advocacy and Advice for carers
  • Social Activities
  • Family Action Support Group

They also run workshops and short courses helping people to understand what is going on when someone experiences a period of severe mental illness.

Family Tree Wirral also provide advocacy and welfare benefits advice to carers and their family members and offer access to free counselling for carers.

Our Work

Family Tree Wirral approached us to develop a new website acting as a point of contact for service users, a centralised portal of useful information including news and events, and to assist in local representation and fundraising.

The previous website was scrapped in favour of a ground up rebuild utilising our Pixel framework to ensure a smooth experience for all users.

Key Features

  • Responsive  – The website works on all devices whether that’s a smartphone, tablet or computer.

  • Accessibility Options – Users have a range of accessibility options to tailor their experience based on their individual needs.

  • Online forms – Users can complete feedback, complaints and application forms directly through the site replacing the previous paper based method.

  • Latest news – Users can keep up to date with events, positive news, competitions and future consultations all in one place.
