Unique Ways
We developed a new brand, complete with a new name, for the charity formerly known as Calderdale Parents and Carers.

Unique Ways, formerly known as Calderdale Parents and Carers (CPC), is a charity based in Halifax, West Yorkshire, providing support and services to parents and families of disabled children and young people. The charity’s goal is to make sure that the voices of parent carers are heard and can shape the services they use. Many of the staff are carers themselves.



The Brief
Calderdale Parents and Carers wanted a complete rebrand, with a new name and website. They wanted a brand and image that was positive, yet didn’t shy away from the challenges faced by parent carers and disabled children.
The new website also needed to provide much more information about the charity’s services, enable new members to sign up online, and be compliant to AAA accessibility standards.
What We Did
Rebrand
The first stage of the project was the charity’s new name and branding. The idea was to represent the journey through life that each parent carer takes with their child, with original suggestions including Along the Way, Around and About, and Scenic Routes.
One of the initial challenges of the project was that the name would obviously need approval from several different groups – the charity leaders, parent groups, and partners. With none of the original suggestions quite hitting the mark for everyone, we came up with Unique Ways, which we felt perfectly represented the many different experiences people using the charity’s services would have. This proved to be the winning option.
As a charity with a family focus, the branding needed to be colourful – CPC also wished to merchandise the brand at a later date, so our design team created a number of characters to populate the site and serve as logos.
The Future
We loved working with Unique Ways, and their incredibly passionate and dedicated team. Our work on the site has seen organic traffic increase fourfold in the first few months. We’ll continue to support them with website maintenance, and anything else they need from us, including new projects!
