GRAPHIC DESIGN
Capture attention with standout visuals.
Good design makes people read and act on complicated information. We turn long and technical information into clear, well-designed documents that help service users understand what they’re reading.
Our talented graphic design team makes products such as booklets, leaflets, digital guides, infographics and illustrations. All our designers work within WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility standards.
WHY DESIGN MATTERS
Trust is an essential in the healthcare industry and custom visuals that match your message help build it. Nothing beats visuals made for you and your audience and great design helps you:
-
Turns dense reports and evidence into something people will read
-
Make patient and public information easy to follow
-
Keep every document, guide and campaign consistent and on brand
Bring your organisation to life and strengthen recognition with our brilliant graphic design services.
FEATURED PROJECTS
Take a look at some of the innovative digital solutions we have developed for healthcare organizations. Each project represents our commitment to delivering high-quality, impactful, and user-friendly experiences.
HOW IT WORKS
Discovery Chat: We start with a conversation about what the project needs to achieve and who it’s for so we can design with purpose.
Brand Review: We’ll look at your brand guidelines and any existing assets so the finished piece fits with your wider organisation.
Design Brief: A clear and simple outline of what we’re aiming for so we’re all agreed before design begins.
Create and Review: Our designers develop your piece and we review it against the brief together, making any changes necessary.
Our clear and collaborative process keeps things clear whether you need a one-off project or on-going support.
TYPES OF DESIGN
WE PROVIDE
PATIENT & PUBLIC INFORMATION
Leaflets, booklets and digital guides help people understand their condition, treatment or care using plain and accessible language.
ILLUSTRATION
From flat vector graphics to richly drawn characters, illustration makes sensitive topics approachable and builds a visual style that is yours alone.
3D RENDERS
3D renders create visuals of products still in development or of things that can't be photographed like medical devices, anatomy and processes.
DOCUMENT TEMPLATES
A suite of professional templates for in-house use so your team stays on brand without needing a designer for every task.
REPORTS & DOCUMENT LAYOUTS
We turn raw content into accessible and well-structured documents. We’ll help real people read your research reports, policy briefings, annual reviews, technical manuals and installation guides.
INFOGRAPHICS & DATA VISUALISATION
These clear visual summaries of findings, statistics and processes are great for reports, presentations and social media.
PRINT MEDIA
Leaflets, booklets, brochures and pamphlets get information into people's hands and great design makes them want to read it.
BRANDED MATERIALS
Merchandise puts your brand in people’s hands. We create conference materials, tote bags and a variety of corporate gifts.
EASY READ & ACCESSIBLE INFORMATION
Not everyone can use information in its standard form. We turn complex health content into versions that work for more people, including:
-
Easy Read documents use short sentences, clear images and a simple layout for people with learning disabilities or limited literacy
-
Plain-language rewrites of clinical, policy and research content so it’s written for the people who need to understand it
-
Accessible PDFs and digital documents that work with screen readers and assistive technology
-
Alternative formats, such as large print, so your information reaches everyone you serve
-
We believe in accessibility from the start so Easy Read and plain-language versions can be produced alongside your main materials.

FAQs
DO YOU DESIGN TEMPLATES IN MICROSOFT WORD?
Microsoft Word is a powerful word processing tool, but it's not suitable for graphic design. We usually work in Figma and/or the Adobe Suite. If you need editable templates for your team, we recommend getting a free version of Figma or Canva. We can provide training and support on how to use these softwares.
HOW MUCH DOES GRAPHIC DESIGN COST?
It depends on the scope of your project. A simple document layout might cost less than a hand-drawn illustration - but even then, factors like document size and whether you need content creation can influence the final price.
The best way forward? Get in touch with your goals and budget, and we’ll recommend the right solution to match. We’re here to make sure you get maximum value and results from your investment.
WILL I BE INVOLVED IN THE DESIGN PROCESS?
Absolutely. We'll involve you right from the start to make sure the project is heading in the right direction, and we’ll check in with you at key milestones for feedback and review.
Our designs are based on a deep understanding of your brand, audience, and goals - and we ask you to trust us to make creative decisions within those boundaries. We’ll provide clear structures to help guide objective feedback, and we’ll need a key decision-maker available to review and sign off on work at each stage.
