Bringing More Light to Their Online Presence

The Bereavement Cafe needed a website that could serve as a comforting space for those dealing with grief, while also making it easy for visitors to engage with the charity, donate, and stay informed about upcoming events. The site needed to include interactive elements, like the sunflower memorials, and provide a smooth user experience with fast load times and easy navigation.

Bright Solutions

A Fully Interactive, Compassionate Website

In May 2023, we designed a custom, user-friendly website for The Bereavement Cafe, ensuring it offered both emotional support and practical tools for engagement. Here’s how we brought it to life:

  • Logo Design and Brand Guidelines
  • WordPress with Divi, Custom Design: Developed a bespoke, on-brand website using WordPress and Divi, with a clean, calming design that reflects the charity’s compassionate mission.
  • Jotform for Friends of Donations: Integrated a Jotform allowing visitors to set up recurring monthly donations and become a “Friend” of the charity.
  • Sunflower Memorial Donations: Added a Jotform donation feature, powered by Stripe, where donors can plant a virtual sunflower in memory of a loved one. These sunflowers appear in the interactive, scrolling footer on every page.
  • Hosting, Domains, and Cloudflare: Provided secure, fast hosting with Cloudflare integration to ensure the site is always running smoothly and efficiently.
  • Event Calendar: Implemented an event calendar that showcases the dates and details of the charity’s pop-up cafes, making it easy for visitors to find and attend events.
  • Blog Area: Created a blog where people can share their stories of grief and healing, fostering a sense of community and support.
  • Creative Content Writing: Wrote all the content for the site, ensuring it was both SEO-friendly and emotionally resonant with the charity’s audience.
  • Marketing Materials: Designed roller banners, booklets, posters, and social media graphics to support the charity’s outreach and events.
  • Ongoing Support: Continue to provide regular updates and support for the website, helping the charity grow its online presence, all at a discounted rate.
