NSPCC serves multiple audiences: children in crisis, parents and carers seeking guidance, schools, and supporters. The original homepage has to speak to all of them at once, which can dilute focus. I redesigned the landing page to make urgent help and key actions easier to find while strengthening trust and readability.

Who NSPCC serves

NSPCC speaks to four audiences at once:

  • Children & young people who need immediate, safe guidance.
  • Parents & carers looking for practical advice.
  • Schools & professionals seeking training and safeguarding support.
  • Donors & volunteers who fund the mission.

Problems found

  • Information-dense navigation made it hard to know where to start.
  • Mixed page hierarchies (topics, audiences, and programs all at the same level) blurred decision paths.
  • Donation vs. “Get help”: competing primary CTAs created cognitive friction at the very top of the page.
  • Inconsistent card patterns (varying ratios, labels, and affordances) slowed scanning.
  • Hero image readability/contrast was unreliable depending on photography.
  • “How to help” options were scattered across events, fundraising, and volunteering.

Design response

A calmer, single-column narrative that: (1) triages help quickly, (2) establishes trust with proof, and (3) gives a focused set of ways to contribute without burying parents, schools or donors.

From information-dense nav → To audience-first IA with persistent Donate and priority Get help.

From variable hero readability → To accessible, overlay-based hero.

From mixed card patterns → To one reusable card system.

From scattered “help” actions → To a consolidated Ways You Can Help hub.

From long trust copy → To a compact Impact band near the fold.

Thanks for reading.

This project means a lot to me given the mission behind it, and I hope you enjoyed the walkthrough.
