Designing digital excellence for hospice organisations

As part of our partnership with Hospice UK this is your dedicated space for resources, webinars, case studies and insight.

We've worked with hospices across the UK to build user-focused strategies and design services that make daily operations frictionless and patient experiences seamless.

A digital transformation journey for Dorothy House


We worked in close partnership with Dorothy House to review the charity’s clinical environment, contact centre, fundraising and retail areas. At all times, we were fiercely curious to seek out any potential efficiency gains.


What we made possible

To achieve the charity’s ambitious seven-year-plan, it soon became clear that Dorothy House needed to place data at its centre: an effective strategy was needed to link all various elements together. A CRM system, beginning with the charity’s crucial retail and fundraising operations, became the strategy for delivering essential change.

"We recognised that a cohesive approach was essential to ensuring we are to have full scope of our relationship with a person. There’s no question that we have a better understanding of what we need [digitally], rooting our requirements in reality."

— Claire Newton, Dorothy House

Transforming patient support at Brainkind

Working from the ground up, we turned a fragile digital infrastructure into a robust, joined-up ecosystem. Connecting operational and clinical processes and teams across multiple sites, services and devices, Brainkind were able to achieve ISO27001and NHS integration.

What we made possible

Brainkind isn’t just running more efficiently – they’re ready for the future. 1800 staff across hospitals and community initiatives are equipped with smart processes and flexible systems, empowering them to do more for patients.

"The transformation of our systems and the transparency of information has changed people's lives. The data that we now have access to, and the way we're able to track referrals through to our services, is more professional than ever."

— Cath Murray Howard, Director of Strategy & Business Development

“When Digital Wonderlab say they’re going to do something they are absolutely accountable for it – and they have the ability to then flex accordingly. From a personal perspective I find them really easy to work with. Nathan is interested in the wider organisation as opposed to being an IT geek, he’s somebody who understands IT as part of the transformational culture.”

"We are very grateful to the Digital Wonderlab team who were so generous with their time and creativity whilst helping us to bring St John Ambulance First Aid training to life, shaping it into a fun and informative bite-sized module for iDEA.org.uk learners everywhere to enjoy for free."

“It was very apparent that Digital Wonderlab understood the world of charity and our needs – they just get it. We drew up a wish list of solutions, but the main thing was that they understand the charity perspective.”
