Client: Chestnut Tree House for Designation (2009)
Details: Designation had been working with St Barnabas and Chestnut Tree House Hospices for a number of years running their main websites. The team at Chestnut Tree House came up with a new campaign idea to help raise much needed funds with the help of children either in or connected to the hospice. These Challengers have set themselves the task of promoting the work of the hospice and they are an example to us all. The supporting website (www.chestnutschallenge.org.uk) was put together to help the hospice gain new supporters willing to take the challenge and to allow existing supporters to leave messages of support for the children. I worked for the marketing team at Chestnut Tree House to produce, design and build this site and the supporting campaign site (Take The Challenge, Pass It On).

Client: Averil Macdonald for Designation (2007-2009)
Details: Averil has been a client of Designation for a number of years usually working as a project manager on a education based project either in print or online. She needed a site to showcase her work over the years and help promote the fact that she ‘Woman of Outstanding Achievement 2007′. I worked as consultant and developer on this website which is designed to reflect her personality and to allow individual sections to be promoted seperately dependant on the audience she is talking to.

Client: University of Reading for Designation (2009)
Details: We all know that teenagers reallllly need a damn good educating. As such when approached by the University of Reading to produce their Science Outreach website aimed at supporting GCSE students with their revision it seemed like a good opportunity to get involved in moulding the minds of the next generation.
The site is database driven to allow content to be updated and added to in support of syllabus changes and boasts functionality to allow students to select and save/print free revision cards on areas they feel they need to swot up on. So hopefully the site will prove a valuable resource to not only students taking science GCSE’s soon, but also those wanting to know more about science and the careers it has to offer before choosing selecting their GCSE subjects.
