The job
The Girls Club Life is a community interest company that runs weekly peer support sessions and events for women. The people visiting the website are often having a hard time, and deciding whether it’s safe to reach out.
I’ve been through depression myself, so this one meant a lot to me.
What I did
- Warm, not clinical. The design and the words feel like the community does, rather than a healthcare leaflet.
- Made it easy to see what’s on. Sessions and events sorted by area, with a WhatsApp community and a mailing list for anyone not ready to come along yet.
- Handled the serious bit carefully. The club isn’t a crisis service, so the site says so clearly and kindly, with the right places to go for urgent help.
- Room to grow. A stories section for news and updates, a way to volunteer, and a page for donations and sponsors.
Where it’s at now
The site’s live at thegirlsclub.life, and it’s there for anyone who needs it.
